Black eyes make her look like evil Willow (from Buffy). Looks great. Nice atmospheric piece.

Hi Guys ,

After a rather productive day at Jimbo's house (not many biscuits left ..honest it wasn't me that ate them ..... ...its a hard life eh!!)

Worked on the hair etc and the greatcoat ..now starting to come together ...my dear (grovelling for the future) Jimbo helped a lot on the eyes and lips ..I let him loose and he has certainly improved them IMHO .

The Kharki's will be variations of the colour ...would like to add something to the helmet perhaps her rank/job ie Section Leader ..but can't find any references ....Yet!!!

This should be a commercial subject IMO ..really enjoying the painting .

A way to go but its coming along

Thanks for looking in

Hi Kevin,
Gloria is really taking shape Mate.
The eyes, lashes and eye make up look superb as do the PJs.
It's good that you let Jim do just a little bit with the brush.
Nice work fella.
Cheers,
Keith

Progressing nicely, particularly like the stripe work on the pajamas

 

[DEL]

This is coming together really well Kevin. Nice work on the skintones and the Pj's are a great touch.
Cheers
Derek
