Ha! I am not NOT working on the R&R. I just want to finish that damn mermaid! The piece has been weighing on me. So with my accountability partner out of town I have cut loose to paint! Wow… that’s how I cut loose?!? Blob…
So this is getting in the fish bits! I was trying for opal. Soft multiple shades that blend into a pearlescent effect.
Now I get into the fin colors. And I was afraid the oranges and yellows were going off the rails but I HAD to get in warm tones for contrast with all the blue and green.
BUT, it turned out OK, especially when I laid in lavender for the hair!
I hope to finish in another week or so.
I am also hard at work plotting an RPG campaign! No spoilers! I am watching a bunch of YouTube videos about DMing which helped a lot! So I have an overall campaign now but I probably need some side quests and things as well… Still working on it.
And in other RPG news I got into a Humblewood game!!! Squeee!!! It’s D&D with cute animals and I even ordered the book! Or rather I ordered the cheap misprinted advanced reader copy that Hit Point Press has on sale. It’s shipping from Canada so I think I’m in for a long wait. For some reason Canada post and U.S. post get along like oil and water. Remember that doll I bought that came from Canada, went back and then had to be resent to me? Yeah….. And who knows where it went wrong!
Anyway, Humblwood gave me an idea for a game playing anthropomorphic Pokemon. So- someone make that happen! LOL! I might have to make that happen… But vampires FIRST!!
Lastly- Ko-fi UPDATE! Please go! Please follow! I need all the help I can get!
