Their my favourite too, but read 'the raven' by edgar allen poe. It explains a lot about the bad rap, and leanr about the proverb too, it sounds interesting to me.... hmmm.

Está descabelladamente lindo.
Parece el ave reina que acaba de recibir un ojo a sus leales súbditos negros y lo estuviera revisando escrupulosamente -"tiene buen peso y forma"-

This is so beautiful! The texture and figures look so wonderful and interesting. The calligraphy is great as well! Born left handed, I will never amount to handwriting like that.
The subtle ghost heads are a nice touch as well! Love it!
