Glitter Puzzle Mk 2!!

I FINALLY FINISHED MY SENIOR RECITAL!!!!

The hardest event of my college life, and it's DONE!!

I also finished m secret project!
But I can't tell anyone what it is yet =) so don't ask...

anyways... the past few weeks have been hectic, I've had minimal puzzling time... the only puzzle I did was the second of the 3 glitter puzzles I bought by ceaco, but I only managed to do the easy parts... no time to do the solid blues and all... mainly the biggest time sink was that stupid secret project, BUT IT'S DONE!!

Now the only stuff I have left this semester are to finish my piano and guitar proficiency exams, my arranging and orchestration exam, and my clinical practicum.

anyways! I bought a few more puzzles, which will remain a mystery for awile =) maybe I'll post pics and info of one of them if someone other than penny comments on one of my posts (lova yah penny, but I'm starting to wonder if anyone else is reading this thing)

AND I PREORDERED WILDLIFE!!!!

That's right, I preordered the new worlds largest puzzle... hopefully I'll have the money when the time comes =D, I know a guy who already owns wildlife (Course you and your super early european releases, CURSE YOU!!!!) and I'm now counting the days until I get my hands on that bad boy.

anways... time for puzzle pics! I spent the evening last night finishing this ceaco puzzle, it was honestly almost more frustrating to do than double retrospect... mainly because of the poor quality of the pieces, I mean, sure it looks great now that it's finished... but some of the chipped edges and slightly bent pieces really grind my gears when putting it together...

 So I started with the tigers (I love the shade of blue in this puzzle)
 More tiger, I finally linked all 3 tiger heads in this pic =D
 Full finished tigers (except for a small section of the rightmost tigers tail)
 I filled in the water and the horizon, and then carefully removed the top half of the puzzle so as to work on it on my desk.
 Top half, those aurora lines all have glitter on them, so they were easy to connect... unfortunately you can't really see the glitter =(
 Top right finished =)
 once the top right was filled in, the rest came REALLY easily, It was odd, I could barely tell the aurora line left of the tiger was any different from the rest of the sky, until I found where it went...
Finished puzzle! I think it's really pretty =)
