Portrait of a Dwarven Cleric (WIP: Tonal Map)
This is a tonal map, or tonal under painting. I work in layers, and glazes and this is the first real layer of many. Though the sketch (Here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12550154/) on to the surface, and the light toning wash of the surface could count as 2 others. Once this is fully dry, I will start the real application of paint.
About 4 hours (not real sure) of work thus far (not counting all the prepping). Also, I am using new and better paint (M. Graham oils) I am not used to, so the color is a lot richer, and redder then I had expected. Additionally, a little of this paint goes a long way, as the pigment load is so much more then the Windsor & Newtons oils I used to use.
18” x 24”, Oils on Masonite.
Haven't been able to focus on this the past few days. Getting only an hour or 2 in sense Friday. Slow, it feels like I am crawling on this.

The King's painter could both be a wonderful and dangerous...
While, I would love to do live sittings with the subject, it is not always possible, and especially with this one (as the subject now lives on the west coast). So, I take dozens of photos, and work from them. I am a bit of an Antiquarian, I do appreciate the modern camera. Its saves so much time and effort with live studies. *Grin*
