Felicia Day Mass Effect painting update 10
After a break over the festive season I’m painting again 😀
Here’s the latest progress on the Felicia Day Mass Effect oil painting. I’ve started on the background now and added a new character Thane. I’m hoping to push on and get this finished within the next week.

Here’s the latest update on the progress of my current painting. Still not got the likeness I’m after yet.

I’ve started the painting now. Although this is a larger painting with other things going on I am concentrating on getting the face right. If I don’t get this part right the painting will be scrapped without wasting any time on the rest of it. It’s looking okay at the moment but I need to put more work into it so I am happy before moving on. I really get a bit uncomfortable about posting unfinished work but maybe someone will appreciate seeing the different stages of progress 🙂
Felicia day Painting – work in progress 1
My Faith/Eliza Dushku painting was still not finished as I travelled down to Inva2ion this weekend in London. I needed to finish it to enter it into the Art competition and to have it on show for people to see during the convention. I took my easel and paints with me and I finished it off during the Friday night and Saturday morning from my hotel room in the Renaissance at Heathrow. I had to use the hairdryer on it to get the paint to dry quicker 😀
Here is the painting. To give it a more personal touch I set the scene in Boston at Fenway Park the home of the Boston Red Sox. The bad guys (zombies/Demons) in the corner are supporters of rival team the New York Yankees. The dog is supposed to be Max Factor (Elizas dog making a guest appearance :D) jumping into the face of unknown danger to protect his owner, while Faith prepares to swipe at her unseen enemy with a baseball bat!

I did finally get to meet Eliza several times over the weekend and got a photo taken 😀

I am working on a new Faith/Eliza Dushku painting which I am trying to get finished in the next few days. I’m going to post the progress of this one as I do it every few hours if possible. This is an oil painting on canvas 70cm x 50cm. Here’s the progress so far.

I’ve done some more work on the face now which is an improvement I think.

When I look at old paintings I have done it can bring back memories of what was happening at the time I was doing them. This Faith painting will always remind me of Ronnie O’Sullivan winning his 4th World Snooker championship. Well done Ronnie!!!
Well done Ronnie O'Sullivan

A few more facial refinements. Not far to go now.
Deckard update
Updated 19/02/12
The face has been worked on and it’s looking back like Mr Ford after going a bit off track.

Still not happy with it though. More work to do tomorrow!
Deckard work in progress
Continuing on from the Rick Deckard sketch, here is the painting so far based on that sketch. This is an oil painting A4 size. This is now starting to look like a 1982 Harrison Ford from the film Blade Runner.
I had been struggling and nearly ripped it up earlier in the process as it was strangely looking like Mel Gibson but I’m glad I didn’t give up on it as a few more hours of work has started to produce a better likeness.
