The Xmas story advances

Well its been a rubbish day weather wise so after the morning jobs it was back to working on my granddaughter's Xmas story book. I know it's only August but these things take time.

I have completed the third draft and thanks to the steer from Blipper annejohn with the reference to Tolkien's Farmer Giles of Ham I have introduced the sword Tailbiter.

The image has used software that I have seen Blipper Tookie use which gives a totally different approach, if not comic effect, to the illustrations.

The image is based on an image taken at Ludlow Castle and a plastic dragon hanging from a chemistry set stand. But also some help from PS and some select and masking functionality.
