Another charity piece here featuring Colin Maclachlan who is an ambassador for the charity Pilgrim Bandits.
Just googled Pilgrim Bandits AG as I hadn't heard of them. A really good cause. Will keep my eye on the progress of your painting. Good luck.
The actually sketch above will be changing.... stand by
Finally started the latest charity piece. Changed the subject image (Colin Maclachlan - really nice bloke)
A solid weekend work behind me now. Used the arms from one phot and another image. Not happy with the definition of them so will go back to them and one of the eyes isn't right.
Decided that one of the arms needs to go and be redone....
I really enjoy seeing your military paintings as my son is a Marine. Love how you manage to capture the strength of character. This man looks like a real do-er, if you know what I mean. Please check out the painting, I have started of my son in WIP!
Few spent yesterday, mostly spent the weekend entertaining my son..... Daddy Daddy Daddy...... Very happy with this now, not far from finishing I think.
Looking fine AG, getting a likeness is the most important thing and without knowing him I am positive you have achieved that.
Thank you Derek. Had plenty of issues with this one. Original phot is not the best, plus had to add the arms in. Determination in getting it right has paid off I think. Colin is happy too.
The painting is now finished and in the gallery.
Just seen it in the gallery and it looks wonderful. Well done Anthony.
