      Wow. This is a very challenging composition. Really well done. Would love to see how it develops further.

            @Aleksey This is looking really good. I know them retail blues :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:
            If I might; for the meter on the last two lines, would you consider:
            "Even quicker than it starts,
            May strongest bonds be pulled apart”
            just a suggestion 🤷♀
            I love the witch character. It's like she's pulled out of out fairy tales...or mayby from some Terry Pratchett novel 😂

                    This is looking good. I love the 50things projects so I’m routing for you to make it happen. Good luck on the contest. This is already one of my favorites. 👍

                      @burvantill awww you guys are soo greatt you made me feel better! (Im at work on a Saturday when the trains arent running so I appreciate you all for the messages and upvotes)

                      The real struggle is gonna be fitting stuff on those back shelves. I might instead do stuff hanging on the wall instead of shelved objects.

                              @inkandspatter @mag thanks! It’s coming along pretty well. Coloring it is gonna be a nightmare but I’m excited

                                    This looks amazing! I absolutely love all the little bits and bobs you've managed to squeeze into the composition, it works really well!
                                    Sorry i'm so late in suggesting this, the smoke coming out of the cauldron looks wispy but the heart itself is a cloud of smoke, maybe the heart should also be wispy as you wouldn't have two types of smoke? Only a suggestion anyway!
                                    I love the witch's face and the little cat, look forward to seeing this in colour!

                                            It's really coming together strong. I'm looking forward to the color.
