Painting a picture 5

 

Today I picked up my fragile paintbrush again, venturing into painting that little orange fellow. Despite my efforts, I will have to make some changes, some small details. Although it may not seem like it, I spent (or rather, enjoyed) an hour painting this part. What I did was take a base tone, a kind of orange, and lighten it with shades of white. The hardest part is painting a detail and then having to wait for the paint to dry before going over it with darker tones. Slowly but surely, I'll finish the painting. What matters most to me is that it turns out well, given my abilities.
