Almost finished beautiful @SKINBYRD ... now on what I think of as the final 3rd of my painting process; the first third is all the roughing in/establishing tone/value/lighting, the second third is the hardest, hours of subtle layering, the last third, now, is all downhill, and the most fun, where the painting is almost finished, and I'm just doing all the final, gorgeous detail that really makes the painting work for me... I'm a detail obsessive. The best part of painting beautiful woman is spending hours and hours familiarising myself with, literally, every detail of their gorgeous faces (:

How an amazing work @orijjinalchris i really cant believe that i am about to have a piece of art made by you! I would love to print it and frame it for my personal gallery ♥ Its a pleasure to inspire artists with pictures as we dont have the time and space to do a live art work together!!!

@SKINBYRD It was a pleasure for me, too, and I'm really pleased with it. The finished painting is in my Fan Art thread (I Do Portraits IV). If you want to send me an email address, I can send you a pdf of the painting... I always work on a big canvas, this one is 79 cm x 59 cm, so you could print it that large (or smaller) from the pdf, without loss of quality (:
