Finally, I dotted in the eyes. First, a round black semi circle is placed in the eye sockets, then a wash of vermillion to bring our life in the whites, then a smaller circle is painted in English Uniform mixed with black and leaving the centre in black.What is needed is to tone the neck and paint in the hardest part, the shoal! My God, I am feeling perhaps I could do source for some nice red line decals just to cheat a bit...but Eunice my wife says that I am a coward if I did that!
With a +2 lens over my eyes, this will take more than +2 to work on with a 40 brush! Got to go to Paris this June to Azimuth and Blast to get myself more brushes.....the only 4-0 that I have is almost bent!
