I painted this one for my younger sister for Christmas this year. Painted right down to the wire, too--took these pictures with the grassy-glue still wet an hour before we were due to be at my dad's house for dinner & gift exchange! I had alot of trouble with the blue on her dress, which was frusterating, because I was using the same recipe I did for the "frost elves" skin tone and had great results there. Maybe I just got too impatient at the end and didn't thin my paints enough.

All in all, she seems to like it, although she doesn't quite get it.. alas, that's what happens when you pick a hobby your family just doesn't get. :)
