It was the old lion's time to go, for angels come in many guises.

I've added a few highlights. I'm gonna call this one finished for now. I may fine tune it in a few days, once it has settled down.

Very nicely done! The hairs on the lion's mane and face really look nice.

Well I avidly read all your WIP's for this one, I love it. I really like the blue sky it really sets the whole thing off. Im with you with glazes and washes in oil, I have just started to paint in oils and have on my easel at the moment a Tiger we shall see how that turn's out.

Anyway fab job and I love the feel and the colours of this one :-)

Thanks for that. I'm glad you like it. :D
It's always appreciated when people actually read them.
Good luck with the tiger and if I can be of any help with the oils, give me a shout. :D

Thanks for the offer :-) any advise greatly appreciated.

The tiger is coming along, and in between waiting for him to dry I have began another animal oil of a baby Orangutan, only this time I have gone bigger as I am finding the small detail with the Tiger a little hard as the canvas isnt so big. So the baby Orangutan is larger and just a head shot. I want to see how detailed I can get if I put my mind to it. I have taken some shots but the camera isnt so good and there was some bad glare back from the wet paint. I have the blocking in so many more hours to go. :-)
