Reflection

Overall great project and I am more than pleased with my final works. 

some were trickier than others and maybe one or two kind of slipped by me with a regret of some sort. 

Favorite and Least Favorite.

My least favorite is War and Economy for sure. I went over board on that one, I mean What was I thinking?!

My favorite is a tie between War and Internet and Cooking and Economy. To me those two are the cleanest and space efficient.

War and Innovation is runner up. the tank and burst of binary is a great effect.
