progress on the 4x4's

many thanks to the twitter followers who not only kept me on track with these ones but spurred me on to doing better than i otherwise would of with out their help












 
im terrible at the whole motivation thing


but when i do eventually start painting


i just pick and pick and pick






 
trying to get as much detail in as i can
and never know when to stop


so all these are down to my twitter followers






with many, many thanks for their assistance

sooo...


this ones for a good cause


and its only 4x4 inches arrrgh
(grabbing my glasses)


this is it so far...

(sorta kinda after two days messing with and repairing it)




i got to this stage on the first day







but then a little mishap involving accidentally grabbing a white spray can instead of the clear seal left me with roughly about half the canvas whited out




......siiiiiiigh

ohhh well these things happen

and soooooo
after the echoes of my screams of NOOOoooooo had faded
i frantically attacked it judiciously
with clear spray and cotton rags



in an attempt to repair

PHEEEEEEeeewwww

managed it


a little bit more work
a little more detail
and carefully examination of the clear seal spray
and i got this far
