Hi Roger!

A very nice work!

Not be angry, please - I have allowed myself to lighten a subrange of your photo by PC a bit, so that one can also see the nice Tartan...:

Also very well done!

Cheers

 

[billyturnip]

Thank you Martin, angry? No, definately not . The plaid was painted in such a way as to give the impression of tartan without having to paint a complicated pattern. I'm pleased you think my experiment is worth lightning and enlarging.

Roger.

Very nice Roger, the red on the coat is great as is the rest.

[billyturnip]

Cheers Andrew. Don't delay, get some flats purchased... I know you want to

Roger.

Fredericus Rex 54mm flat.

Roger.

A FLAT???!!! I thought it was round at first! VERY!!!!!! nice work Roger! Pat yourself on the back for this one. Only thing to add, as Martin has done, is there any chance of a lighter picture to show your hard work off even better?

Jim Patrick

Edit- Ok, saw the thread and I have to say.....IT STILL LOOKS ROUND!

 

[billyturnip]

Thank you very much Jim, I'm glad you were tricked into thinking it was round, the finest compliment a flat painter can receive and for that a better pic

Roger.

Roger,
Excellent and definately a better background colour.

[billyturnip]

Cheers John, perhaps I should re-do the tractor too.

Roger
the new background colour is about as good as it gets for showing your superb work.
Cheers
Derek

 

[billyturnip]

Thanks Derek.

 

[Dan Morton]

Outstanding! I also vote that you "lighten up" Roger. I'm not a big fan of dark photos.

All the best,
Dan

 

[billyturnip]

Thank you Dan.
Photography!!! most of the time the pics look ok until they are posted on the forum. I don't know if it's me, my laptop, my camera or what. No point in getting too worried I suppose photography isn't my hobby

Roger.
