Air Shops - The Grand Bazaar of Ethra VanDalia

I have a new piece from The Grand Bazaar of Ethra VanDalia! With all the monsters complete, it is now time to begin exploring the Grand Bazaar itself. The seventh and final stop finds us at some of the Air Shops. Not all beings choose to conduct their business on the ground or to consort with ground walkers in general. For those with the abilities or means, there are many shops that hover over the Grand Bazaar, ready for business. Hire yourself a Lammergeier Transport and head for the skies for a visit to the Air Shops...

Due to the complexity of these larger full environment pieces I am now working on, I have needed to do value studies to make sure I know where I am going and don't lose my way. Doing these value studies has been one of the best course of action on this project and have saved me a lot of headaches. Here is the value study for the Air Shops...
