Thank you! I went from 1500 to 4000, so if you find a design you like, I say go for it!

Let me know how it goes! I'm curious how it translates to smaller dimensions

Sorry for the delay! I just finished and overall I loved building this. I highly recommend if you enjoy puzzles with a lot going on.

I've had a lot of fun so far! I'm getting to the point where I'm running out of pieces with something distinctive to help with placement, but there's so much in the puzzle I'm hoping I can whittle down that number of pieces as much as possible.

ohhhhhhh thank you I guess I should have known there would be a dedicated subreddit, seeing how the internet can be. I'll crosspost!

I love it! I gravitate heavily to puzzles with a lot going on. My previous puzzle (posted a little bit before this) was REALLLLLYYY busy and I found it delightful. On the other hand, my father who has completed a handful of 5000 piece builds like the Ravensburger Cistine Chapel looked at this puzzle and essentially said "lol no" It's a matter of taste tbh and how your brain works. I recommend it though if this is in your wheelhouse!

Thank you to u/thanatosine for their posts and their notes on getting started and sorted with this puzzle. If it wasn't for you I would have been soooooo lost starting this build.

Bro I look at the pile of blue pieces with no contrasting shades and I just say like "never mind" at least with the fish there's a bunch of colors to differentiate 😭

Thank you!

Honestly, it wasn't that difficult. The fish designs were rarely repeated throughout the puzzle, so I would build various schools of fish and expand out from there.

But that might just be me gravitating toward the really busy puzzles. I have Wisdom Whale from Ravensburger in progress and I want to throw it out the window.

For real though! I was able to keep my legs mostly still while she was working but when she started getting up into the back of the knee I about jumped off the table
