Marlin painting step by step

[SCROUNGER]

Are you using water color scrounger? By the way..you better keep posting them in the future

Yep watercolour Atom and a little gouache for detail. Cheers mate

Coming along nicely Scrounger, both good pics but yeah the 2nd one displays more action & movement, bit of splashing water might look good on it as well.

(I also noticed the Sambar ear on the other pic, just about all the stags we came across had tears from fighting, lots of scaring on the face as well, got one pic that shows it well on a big stag with 30-31 inch antlers, took 6 blokes to lift him in the cruiser after field dressing, he was big).

Some of the stags over in Gippsland way are bloody huge now ozziii. Magnificent animals and a lot of meat on them.

Can't have water splashing, sorry ozziii, for boat stickers so gotta be clean lines. There's a lot less work in marlin than many other fish and far less than on the deer.

 

[SCROUNGER]

getting close to completion, just gotta put in the detail now

Yes Mackka, not necessarily just for stickers, but also books, magazines, clothing etc etc. I'm a fulltime artist and writer/editor etc.

Awesome Scrounger. A true artist!
My sister is a graphic artist and works for the ABC and also runs art classes on the side (painting & drawing). I don't have an artistic bone in my body, though wish I did. My eldest son, 22, is artistic. He's at Photography Studies College and is very talented. Quite different to painting but he still needs to 'see' and capture the image. Keep posting your work. I love seeing your work and showing it to my family. Cheers
