Nervous System, 121 pieces. I liked the interaction of the more regular snowflakes with the curvier Nervous System style. 3/5
About my ratings
Perhaps because of my day job, I'm a tough rater. Everything 3/5 and above I consider worth the time and money. If I purchase on Etsy or a similar platform and the puzzle is as expected, I will give a top rating on the platform because of how seller ratings work, but here "as expected" is probably a 3/5 in most cases.

Vikram Madan, Robot Creation Myth
Artifact, 382 pieces. This one had a lot of dark blue in it that started out hard to differentiate, complicated by the very irregular edge; eventually some distinctions became more visible. Liked the dropout stars! 3/5
Surinam Caiman & South American False Coral Snake, Maria Sibylla Merian
Turning Taxis, 243 pieces. Another small-piece challenge with some subtle color changes in the caiman body! 3/5

Peking Opera #1
Owl-Woodland Flower, Jena DellaGrottaglia
Liberty, 540 pieces. Impressive cut with multipiece flowers centered on the flowers in the image, though hilariously I don't seem to have retained a picture of the front! 4/5
