More Kristianna WIP shots

Kristianna has gotten some more work done and is getting pretty close to getting the core done.  I'm toying with doing some freehand, but overall she is getting there.  Depending on the amount of freehand I put into the dress, I will fiddle with the blends/contrast on both the black and the red parts of the dress.

 

 

A quick congratulations to David Powell for his BoS win at the Capital Palette in Washington, D.C. last weekend.  Well deserved win for his outstanding hockey player piece!  He won himself a trip to the Crystal Brush next year. You can find a detailed collection of pictures at http://www.flickr.com/photos/novaopen/sets/.

This weekend is Recruits Con, our local con.  I'll be attending this year and am planning on getting some shots as well as a bit of paint time in.  It is a fairly small affair, mostly for gamers.  There is a paint and take, but no formal paint contest, unfortunately.
