SneakytikiThanks, yeah, that old menu for Zombie Village is very high on the hip scale. I'm still trying to get over that someone was cool enough to name a restaurant/bar "Zombie Village"! There must be tribute Tee Shirts done or something!

Yep, color glazes is coming next. Actually I found out that I had to alter the Girl's face a tad to match the sketch: move the peak of the eye brow mostly. And I had to make her ear look ....like an ear! But when I went in with Raw Umber and white, I got a whole new weird "Simpsons yellow" color to her! Might this weird yellow be good for adding an under layer of glow to her final glaze layer? (I hope!) I do think I'm getting the look I want the more I glaze over certain objects. My first pass is always off somehow. And speaking of yellow cartoon people, Isn't Grog supposed to be like art directing this painting for me or something? How come Grog didn't catch how off the eye brow was, or the ear thing? He must be reeeaally busy with that movie thing! (poor Grog!)
LTT~Well, thanks so much for the Happy Birthday wishes! Your phone message really brought a smile to my face! And yes, I was taking lunch break, but I was painting! So here it is...

Weird yellow color glazes and all!
So for my B-day I got an IPOD! Wow, I'm finally in the year 2007 now! I almost instantly filled it with pod casts of Coconut wired and Vegas Vics Tiki Lounge! I'm trying desperately not to get paint on it while I work!! (let's just see how long that lasts!)

Aloha!
