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.

Peking Opera #1

 Turning Taxis, 255 pieces. Very small pieces make this an assembly challenge, along with the irregular edge/protrusions! 3/5



finger for comparison



Dee Rogers, Haven of Halos

 Nonie Made Me, 67 pieces. Fun teaser puzzle! 4/5





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
