Mouse's Final Dive


...and he found the Octopus' Garden!






Mouse just may stay a while...I would!

This will probably be my final piece, end pages, for the Sketchbook Project. Especially since I have to post mark it by the 15th, and I still have to figure out exactly how I'm going to print and bind the dang thing!

It's definitely been a fun challenge, and I thank you all for your input and kind words regarding all these pages. I started with one thing in mind and kind of veered off course, but I think that's just fine.
I may have to re-visit some of these pages and flesh out Mouse's story a bit more. I've grown rather fond of the little guy!

Drumroll please...


No? Ok. That's fine. I'll just toot my own horn instead.

Ha!

Seriously though, I have finished (more or less) the two winning ideas from my giveaway last week.
First up, Otin's idea: I could picture a sad little girl holding a dirigible tied to a string. she is sad because she wanted a shiny red balloon and not a drab, gray dirigible.



I love her sad little face...although, truth be told, she has that look like she might pitch a royal temper tantrum any second now!




I also had picked an idea presented by Ellie: Either an super eel monorail, or an octopus hot air balloon.
I may, at some time, visit the super eel monorail idea, but I loved the octopus hot air balloon idea.
And here he is:


You may ask, "why Japanese lanterns?" To which I will reply, "why not?" I dunno, I just thought they'd look pretty. I have a weird imagination, I will admit.

So anyway, Otin and Ellie, I will have prints off to you as soon as I am able to get down in the dungeon basement and print them out for you! Yea!
