Thank you! I think the Kraken is my personal favorite I might try to do a larger version based on it at some point to hang on my wall!

Oh, yes!
You absolutly should! The effects you created in that card are amazing!!!

 

[nanner]

Here's my first card.

She's a beauty! And now it seems there's more mind-melding going on around here again. I'm putting the finishing touches on a mermaid/siren myself.

Lovely work!

Welcome, V. I was hoping you were feeling the call of the ocean. The saved spot is all yours!

 

[gallivantingfox]

Mine went in the mail this morning!

 

[nanner]

I will let you know when they "float in"! If you do a larger version of your kraken, please share in the thread. We'd love to see what you're up to.

Second card!

Another beauty!

 

[nanner]

Here's a sassy siren from me. She's found herself a handful of sailors to toy with.

 

[bethmnie]

She looks sassy indeed, Nanner! Love that blue hair.

Those are fabulous. And the duck

 

[LadyBee]

Here's one from me. I had tentacles on my mind, too.

Awesome

 

[CallunaCreative]

Can I get on the waitlist?

 

[leydab]

Please let me know if anybody abandons ship. I would love to play.

 

[nanner]

Calluna and Leyda, thanks for the interest from you both. For my own swap success and sanity, I tend to limit swaps to around 20 players (and we're already at 29), so we most likely won't add any more players this time around. But, if we do get a slew of players that need to "swim for shore," I'll reach out.

 

[AndromedasWitchery]

Aand... my set...

Olaus Magnus' Monster / S. Munster's Narwal (I believe)
De Bruyn's Ippocamp / St. Brendan "island"

Sincerely hope they will work!

Admit... had sooooo much fun with them - ancient bestiaries are absolutly fabulous!

 

[nanner]

Crikey to the Krakens...those are sensational. Wow. Seriously, they look like illustrations from a book. Thank you for adding those fantastical beasties to the swap!
