I think this one is about done. Finished the brush blending and overall tone balancing, and I’m feeling pretty good about it. There remains the issue of the large open spaces of the quadriceps area and the peroneus/extensors area of the lower leg, and if I have a wave of bravery, maybe I’ll lay down a little light hatching to try to fill some of that space. This is a large drawing, about 12″x24″.
Next up: hands.

omgoodness, the post about the shrew is hilarious. I’m so going to follow your blog. I’ve seen a lot of artistic progress from the start to the end of your blog. It’s a fantastic way to document every step. Great choice on the camera too. I have a Nikon D40 which my husband bought for me last Christmas. Look forward to reading more posts.
Cheers,
KM
