Your ABing seems to be done from a more steady hand since the marrage....hmmmmm .... is it the nerves are more settled, or the weight of the ring? Congrats to yas both...welcome back and as the norm with you...great work

yardartnut: I think you are right my nervs are come and the added weight is also helping :-)

The light in the room

It looks like most of the light is from behind your work

[KwitcherBitchin]

Kant, you're showing alot of improvement in your work there bud. Keep it up............Kwit

[Diaz Dezine]

Hey Kant,welcome back! Back to doin them cool creepy skulls huh?
You might have to either put a light in front of the painting or put your flash on. Lookin' good though!

thanks diaz. I´m working on installing some more light in my workshop, but I have to, keind of watch my expences right now the wedding was realy expencive

[xzotic ink]

OOPS thats what i meant the lighting in the room is too dark...

[kant76]

A question. I some time ago read somthing about electric light that there are two types of different light bulps that you can use together to create somthing that are very close to daylight. I red it on some art forum but now I cant find it. so if anybody knows what I´m talking about I would realy like to know thanks in advance

[Kaiilla]

Go to the nursery (plants) they have bulbs for "daylight"

[kant76]

thanks kaiilla, I´ll pick one up, but in the articel it said that I should mix this light with some other light, to get the it compleatly right, guess ill have to do some more reserch.

I have had the time to do some more painting and here are the result so fare.

[redneck]

I read about the lights, not 100% sure but think that you need 1 warm bulbs & 1 cool bulbs

[theairbrushguy]

Your skulls are looking right on track! If you want, you can try to make the dark areas even darker as they seem a bit on the gray side. Thats not a bad thing, just an observation! With some areas really dark and then hiting the highlights with some bright white, the depth that you end up with will be killer.

showing some great progress there Kant.
still cant believe a newlywed is taking time out for painting tho!! LOL

[kant76]

redneck , ill try asking for thos bulbs in a light marked maby they know what to do.

TABG i´ll tey that trick with the dark on an other projekt I´ve got going on the side if it works out ok i´ll apply it to this one too. Right now I´m painting on the edge on what my skills allow me so I´m trying not to go to far, as you said in another tread "less is more) :-)

heartless thanks , yes I´m newelywed but we have been together every singel day for the last 2 years, so a coupel hours or 5 is ok. actualy she just have to stamp in the flooe to get my attention my workshop is right below our living room :-)
