    The 4th hedgehog from the left looks like it's stretching the face of the 5th hedgehog. Or he punched him really hard.

    It's hard to spot at this resolution, but the fifth hedgehog from the right (Peter) is holding a knife, so the fourth (Judas) is being Judas-y and trying to sell him out. Yes. We photoshopped hedgehogs into the Last Supper and tried to give the hedgehog apostles correct attributes so far as such a thing was possible...

    I love all of these. Do you mind if I use one as my book cover? I have written a romance novel about a man who turns into a hedgehog. Looking for beta readers to give me honest feedback before I proceed with publishing. You interested?
