My Daughter is due in July so I am painting her old room for when my Grandkid visits. I call "him" a kid because they don't want to know the sex.
This is almost the way I painted it when my Daughter was born 33 years ago.
When it is finished there will be real tree limbs coming out of the walls and going into the ceiling. Mis Piggy will be on a swing swinging back into the wall and there are real ropes coming off of her painted swing and going to the real limbs on the ceiling. I love this stuff, but it leaves less time for reefing. I don't really spend much time on my tank anyway and we got to do what we got to do. :D I just finished the Count

Thanks, I cheated on some of the larger characters by using a projector for the outline. The last time I did almost the same exact picture for my Daughter and I did that all freehand. Now that I am a lot older, it takes me too long and I want to get it done before the kid goes to college
 
that's so cool Paul, you are a man of many talents my friend.

I love this stuff
