Great start! The house an adorable. How’d you make the feet? They look very lifelike.
The bone fence = super cool.

Thanks, all! @curiousfae, the feet are polymer clay with acrylic paint detail.

That house was EVIL, which is fitting given the subject matter :rofl:. Everything went sideways at almost every step of the assembly process. I’m just glad it held together in the end!

Book description:

Seven years ago the Atargatis set off on a voyage to the Mariana Trench to film a mockumentary bringing to life ancient sea creatures of legend. It was lost at sea with all hands. Some have called it a hoax; others have called it a tragedy.

Now a new crew has been assembled. But this time they’re not out to entertain. Some seek to validate their life’s work. Some seek the greatest hunt of all. Some seek the truth. But for the ambitious young scientist Victoria Stewart this is a voyage to uncover the fate of the sister she lost.

It’s technically horror, but more horror light and so beautifully written. I love it! I just sent @bunny1kenobi the prequel as a kindle book because you can’t get it in print.

Next up, is the outside of the book, another little journal, and book marks.

The books! And even more treats! I’m so excited to read these.
