This looks and sounds phenomenal! The style is lovely, the lighting is impeccable, and the details in every scene are calling out to the cursor!

I like the art! It reminds me of Swedish artists Jan Lööf and Sven Nordqvist in style. Best of luck with the production.

Thanks for the comments.

The reason is that I have health issues and therefore no time to draw them myself. Actually I can do the artwork as you can see from the banner. By the way it is not easy to create the right background image you need.

I had to fight the AI to find the correct images  :-D .

Thank you all for your support.
