Foxglove is reading to his family in Rose's bedroom. I imagine he wrote that book himself!

This is the first big project I've been able to finish in almost three months! I got it about 2/3 finished about six weeks ago.
Now, for some points of interest about making it... I know it's silly, but I've always wanted to come up with some stylized signature. This is the first one that I've actually liked and may use more than once. It has both the "B" and "Mc" of my first and last names combined. That lava lamp was fun to make. It think it looks just a bit *too* real compared to the cartoony feel of the rest of it. For a while, I had Foxglove's ring on the wrong finger and had to redo it and part of his hand. (You can still see that in the WIP in my scraps.) The wallpaper is "real." I cutout a small bit of an online photo, tiled it, changed the huge, and then used the transform tool to paper the background. And that photo on the wall is something Rose drew. ...Well, obviously she didn't really make it. My uncle did. ^^ I let him try out my tablet one day, and he sketched that. It seemed perfect for it, as it could pass for a slightly above-average child's drawing.

Notice a key difference here? Lilly wasn't around when I drew it originally way back then. This was also Lyon's first appearance. He's so cute like that, peeking over his daddy's shoulder! =3
