Re: Lion fish ~ WIP

Rob I just wanted to say this is wonderful. I have been a diver for 10 years and have always wanted to do a lion fish because they are a beautiful and unusual creature. You have done a wonderful job here!

Re: Lion fish ~ WIP



I'm only posting this small update so you'll stop tapping your foot and get back to more important things...like working on your painting!



Very little progress made on the fish itself but if you look reeeaallly close you'll see the drop shadow I added on the blue "mat" as well as under the fish itself. I promise I will finish this before year's end.

Thanks for the nudge!

Rob

Re: Lion fish ~ WIP

Just joined in on this one - wow, just wow. I am utterly gobsmacked by your talent with the CP and all that masking. Honestly that fish looks like he's coming out of the screen, it's that good.

Is the picture for you to keep when it's done? I am not sure if I could part with such a beauty, that's all

YAYYYYYY!!!!....An update, those shadows really help it pop, not that it needs the extra 'pop' but it is looking even more sumptuous than last time I peeked .

Way to go Rob -a very unique take.

Re: Lion fish ~ WIP

It's always amazes me how a piece can be so transformed into a lifelike object one you start dropping in those shadows. Fabulous work!
