I went for the normal difficulty since some of the hard/extra hard combos were... unappealing. But that's RNG for you I guess. Very fun challenge overall, I hated some of the themes I got so it was doubly hard to work with them - which is exactly how I like it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

These are beautiful! (I always fond LotR caps so hard to wotk with, so cudos to you)
Light on 7 and 8, coloring on 6, 19, 20, crop on 12 and composition on 10 are my faves <3

Thanks :D
I still remember working with crappy DVD caps back in the day, so these were a joy tbh.
