Third time's the charm

I wrote the last post about being unable to come up with a satisfactory illustration for “Alice’s adventures at the Poles” showing Alice’s face. Well, I didn’t give up. I decided to have a third attempt, and the third time proved to be the harm. As with previous posts I’m not going to explain the story, or the part of the story that this illustrates. I’m certainly not going to be giving away a lot about the story until I’ve written the whole thing. But here’s Alice.

I explained about most of the choices I made about costume etc. in a post last week, so I won't go over all of that again now. But at least I now know what the front and back of my Alice looks like and that can only be to the good.
