I love this image by Mordillo where the shepherd is playing cards with the sheep. He looks quite confident, too. This was a very fast puzzle, although the tree would have been difficult in a larger piece count.
This was the last of my daily posts in January 2021, and now I will be going back to posting at least every Friday, and mostly on Tuesday as well.
Great little Heye puzzle from 2000. Could have been difficult in a larger piece count, but this was just right.
That really is a cute dachshund, no denying that, but somehow, the puzzle was just OK. The pieces are extra large, which I usually enjoy, but I couldn’t quite get into this.
Fantastic painting by Salvador Dalí. The puzzle is part of the Ravensburger Art series, and the quality is of course great. I would love to do this in a much larger piece count, 2000-3000 pieces. I’m definitely keeping this to do again.
An image by Ruyer showing a brothel being evacuated during a fire. Some funny details (like the orchestra playing on), and it was a nice enough puzzle.
I’ve done quite a few lighthouses, and I love stormy waters in a puzzle. This was quite worn, and many pieces had a bit of lift (as you can see), but all the pieces were still there.
I (almost) always like 500-piece Clementonis, regardless of image, but a nice image like this is especially enjoyable. Not much to say about this one, other than that I loved it 🙂
A vintage F.X. Schmid produced in Germany. It says Made in West Germany on the box, which dates it no later than 1990, but I think it’s from the mid-eighties, or even earlier. The image is stunning, of course, but as I was doing the sky, I did wonder what on earth I was thinking when I bought this. Pretty difficult, but worth it in the end.
Most of the pieces where of the shape with two tabs opposite with the occasional “wavy” backs. These two confused me when I was doing the edges 🙂 All of the tabs had a slightly pointy shape, and the cut reminded me of this puzzle.
An image by Mordillo with lots of relaxing activities. It was actually a very relaxing puzzle, one of the less busy Mordillo images.
A village surrounded by golfing, fishing and kite-flying. The car on the top of the picture is passing a sign that says Parma, a city in northern Italy that is home to Parmesan cheese and Parma ham.
Landscape painting and a picnic.
Not the easiest puzzle I’ve ever done, but well worth it for the magnificent colours. Also good quality, but I could tell it’s been assembled a few times before.
