"The Night Witch"--Painting: Leather

With the face effectively done--as always, subject to finishing touch-ups once the colours settle-- it was time to move down to the leathers. . . 

Phase 1 of the boots is done. This was largely done with the palette used for the face. Integrative touch-ups will follow once the breeches are done and the figure is permanently mounted on its display base; but for now the tonal values and transitions are set. 

Once the boots are dry, I intend to transfer the figure to its display base DONE!, and complete the figure in situ.  

Stay tuned!

UPDATE 07.02.17. . . The breeches are done! All that remains of the leather-work are the gaunt- lets, the flight helmet, and some trim on the jacket. . .

When the cost of a hobby exceeds the fun and doesn't attract new people, the game is over.” -
