Stars can be Warriors too


A warrior star...
or at least one that lives in the vicinity of Mars.
This particular warrior star has an affinity for the water below
as he floats just above it.


He is fiery to the core.


But there are chinks in his armour...
or I could not bring myself to cover this rusty spot.


Needle weaving forms an effective protection for stars of the warrior genre.

    Oh, a star warrior... lovely.

    And I noticed Pillars of the Earth in the sidebar... I loved that book and its sequel. Wonder if you saw the film version. It was a made for TV min-series and I thought they did a mostly excellent job. Some things a bit off, but for the most part, I liked it. It was only the Pillars book, maybe someday they'll tackle the next. Lots of lovely inspiration over there on that sidebar!

    I love the way you've stitched the points of the star - and the bit you left out where the rust shows through. Such an effective technique.
