Oooh I have no patience for details like that, so I am truly impressed. I can't believe how well you have made those window panes!

What size paper is the original?

Aw, thank you so much! The window panes had me exhausted, I tell you. I very much regretted the idea to give the damn place so many windows! But I'm thrilled that you think they're well done!

It's a standard watercolour pad (24 x 32 cm), and thus slightly too large for my A3 scanner, which I always keep forgetting (hence the fuzzy shadowy lines at the top and bottom. Thangorodrim actually had a proper shadow but I had to cut it out in order to preserve the signature). One day I will learn to keep that in mind but it was clearly not this day...
Anyway, thank you!
