A SPECtacular effort...

Well, finally finished something over in Spain, had a bit of a break (about 3month) but the weather is starting to cool down a bit now so I´m not blinding myself with sweat when I try to paint.

Also my eyes have taken a downward spiral so I´m a speccy git now which meant painting took a bit of getting used to, hence why the face and a few other bits are a bit of a letdown.

My speccy self...

And Celeborn (And I don´t have any more photos, not having my photo set up gear over here makes it a right bitch)

Looks good Matty. Especially with your break in painting.
Hopefully with the cool down we can expect to se a lot more from you again.

Take care mate.

Too right they do, I now look as intelligent as I am! ;)

Yea Tim, I had to shave it off before coming over to Spain or I would have just boiled, its getting quite long again now though, give it till xmas and I should resemble a mop again.

I wish I could get a better photo, but unfortunately it ain´t gonna happen.

Was nice to get something painted though, might do an Enigma piece next as I am in the models hometown!

Peace and love...

Good to see you\'re still painting well Matty, even after a break.

What\'s with the shirt? have you gone all respectable?

Respectable, delectable and damn equitable.

Either that or my T-shirts were in the wash and I couldn´t be bothered to hang them out. lol

Peace and love...

Nice one! :) Good to see you back painting! I dig the colours! really nice work on the clothing.

The very sharp line on each side going down from the eyes are a bit distracting though not sure you need them at all. I also think you should have the same amount of light on top of the forehead, maybe even a bit more, then the rest of the face.

I think I repainted the eyes on my Celeborn (back in the day) about 30-40 times. No kidding. I\'m still not sure there is supposed to be any eyes.. I think the rounded shapes are only supposed to be the pouch under the eye and eyelid or something like that. Did you have the same problem? They look alright in the picture though.

Yes, it took many, many attempts to get the eyes looking even half decent. Lots and lots of repainting.
But I know what you mean about them not being eyes.

Peace and love...

Just ordered Furgol from Kraken, my first purchase in about 5 month, so I\'m looking forward to painting that. :bouncy:

Peace and love...
