Really can’t wait to finish this one off. It’s getting to that point where I can count the number of things I need to work on still on one hand.
I completed another pass over most of the hair, face and head so the photo here is extra shiny in those areas. But the background is fully resolved now with a nice gradient and the slats have been glazed over to get them to recede into the background and stop pushing forward.
I think the main thing left is to put another solid pass on the violin to bring it up to the same level of finish as the rest of the subject. After that the hands need just a little more polish and maybe one more finishing pass on the details around the eyes.
That’s about it… hoping to get a chance to finish it completely before the new year.
