Thanks to those who viewed or posted a comment on the previous thread.

Techs look fine. Mother seems reasonably tolerant of this rather large youngster's easy meal!

I like this very much, but what I really like are the Mother's stripes that seem to continue onto the "baby". Excellent techs.

Sweet. I like how the stripes line up in some places. A tiny crop of just the intersection of their bodies would make an incredible abstract!
