With the addition of a new family member, work and the more frequent appearance of sunshine and the odd ride on my bike, I've not had chance to even consider starting anything new...but...my wife liked the Leopard so much she wanted it framed, so I've done that:

Just a quick entry to say I have finally completed the leopard. Well, perhaps not 100% finished, but finished enough for now!
I will update the leopard entry within 'projects' when I get a chance, but for now here's a quick look: I recently downloaded an airbrush tuition guide on how to paint a leopard.
New water-based paints bought the other day (and a solvent-based too?)
Check out the 'Paints I Use' section. Whilst cleaning my HS Infinity earlier I found the needle was bent!
Whilst faffing on the last project I got a little too close without the tip-guard on, but don't remember doing any damage?! Totally gutted. I have tried to repair/straighten it so we'll see how it goes... It is currently 4.50am and I haven't slept since I woke up yesterday at 9am! Having a 5 day old baby in the house is certainly taking its toll on my beauty sleep! Fortunately I am pretty hot so it's not a huge problem!
On a more serious note, more of this site has now been updated. zzzzzz zzzzzzzz Well, the addition of our new family member has meant there only seems to be only one person getting any sleep...and it isn't me or my wife!
It has meant that I have been able to spend some much needed time updating information on here. It's still a work in progress, but I have another 10 days of paternity leave and some late nights to get finished! Congratulations to my wonderful wife, who yesterday gave birth to our gorgeous son. She did tremendously well during the 13 hours she spent in labour, and now, just 24 hours after the birth we are all home and doing well.
I doubt much painting will be carried out over the next couple of weeks whilst we care for our son and fall into some sort of routine, but it does give me an ideal opportunity to update the older stuff on here. |
