So, I got a bit stuck on the creature ...often happens in the middle of a painting. I will re-sketch out something so I can re-think, or think of it in the lighting I want it to be in.... I'm doing That with the creature's legs now...I want him to be a dark figure coming out of the moon-lite surf, but my arty side keeps painting in too many details...so I gotta figure out structure and shadow and what to show and what to keep in shadow... where scales go and blah blah blah... so here's da sketch... muscles and scales.... I may paint out most of it but first I gotta know what is there. Painting sea creatures at midnight in Hawaii... seems like the right time to figure it out!
