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.

Sleeping Blonde Mermaid, Viktor Nizovtzev

 Elms, 453 pieces. A good challenge because of the way the colors interact with each other in juxtaposition--is it grey, green, or gold? 7/10

Peace of Heaven

 Elms, 458 pieces. I like a good sky, where you have to use shapes mostly, and this delivered (though there were also small color variations that could be untangled), including with nice dropouts. 7/10
