Amethystta – WiP

Thought I’d better post some progress shots. ^^ I’m still playing around with the background and I have a fairly good idea of what I’d like it to be…so Ima have to paint over it! >< Ah well, it’s all good.

Okay, I’ve played some more with the background and am much happier with where it’s going. I still have to refine the clouds some more, but I’m getting there.

Okies, clouds are pretty much done, I might still do some tweaking as I paint…but I’ll see.

22/2/08 – Finally up to the gemstones and they have (so far) been easier than I thought, but it takes a bit of playing around with the paint to make the right colours. I still have a fair amount of work to go but it’s all good. Oh also ignore the wings at this stage, I’ve just been playing with colours so far…they will look better soon…promise! ^^;

29/2/08 – Yay updates! Gems are almost finished and then it’s just the dragon to go! ^^ I’ve decided to make this the first of a series of paintings featuring dragons and gemstones so the title will be changed for the final version. I removed the gem behind the dragon just because it looked really out of place. Things are pretty mucky right now but I am so close to the nice detailing stuff! Can’t wait! ^^
