Thanks!
The three nearly identical blues are getting old, LOL. I'm working on them now, up to the second of the three, and then I get to do the boring blocking in of purple, (not that bad, really, since it's not huge areas of one colour), and then the yellows. I'm thinking i'll leave the bright blue eye till last, so its nice and crisp over the other colours, if that makes sense.

I'm filling in the blue tummy area as I upload this, these grids are saving me from so much frustration. Whyyyy did I never get one before this?

thanks!
as for stitching others, I do plan on it. I'm thinking of doing this one again, sometime down the track, for my neice, who wants this one, BAD. I'd probably lighten up the 'shadow' colours a bit, as well.
I'm also going to get some plastic canvas, and do Pygmy dragon magnets, for myself and a friend. I'm thinking of doing (eventually) all the pygmies, in both genders, unless they're not Dimorphic. Then they can be forever alone.

I'm also thinking of waste canvassing one onto my luggage bad, for my holiday in September. DRAGON BAG. :D

Except for the eye, I'M ALMOST DONE :clap:

After this, i'm going to go start some whristmas gifts, so I can get them out of the way, and ready for when I send off all the giftyness, later in the year.
I'll probably end up doing the pygmies as quickies, in between projects, to give myself something fun to do.

...plus i'm pretty broke at the moment, so can't afford heaps of plastic canvas from spotlight.

The list of to-do's grows ever longer...

It is a bit dark, so i'm just going to call this a dark sunsong morph. ;)
But i'm really happy with it. YAY!

Very pretty! The colors are kind of sunsetty, but that works :) And the bright blue of the eye pops nicely.
