Secret Village 01

This took a while to finish, but I'm pleased with the final result. I'm worried about how long it took me to make, but that's probably because I had to learn some new stuff and mess around with brushes and text balloon things, as well as finalize character designs.  Please let me know what you think! 

Also, while working on this, my plan is to draw 3 images for a simple sequence (like I used to do) so there's no lack of shrinking ladies content and for the fourth image, I'll work on finishing one of these pages.
