This is another great submission! It really does look like you had fun with this one. I feel like I could learn a thing or two (or three!) about hatching just by poring over your work :)

thankyou! i very much consider myself more of a stippler than a hatcher but have been trying to improve on the latter and this challenge is a nice way for me to try it more. i finished this and went "well i like it but also i should have done a whole bunch of things differently". but that is just the way of things isnt it :)
