A Little Slow, But Catching up!

2/3/2019

 Just a quick post here tonight to show where Kipling's at presently. I had a slow start on NaMo this year; On the 1st I was anticipating a load of hay (& having to drop what I was doing to go stack it) & so didn't get the start I wanted. & yesterday's excuse was an all day headache that blossomed into a migraine. :P
 Today made up for those two lost days though! I not only got him completely based...

No really! He is based! See his tail tip that's still white primer?
 But also the first layer of oils down! ...Exciting, isn't he? (No, not really!)
Picture
 Now I sit back & wait for the oils to dry, which could take a couple days. White seems to be the slowest color to dry, & he has a lot of white! Browns, on the other hand, tend to dry overnight. 
 But anyway, stay tuned! Hopefully tomorrow I can get my more in depth post on basing & oiling him posted. We'll see if I can get that accomplished!
​ Happy painting all!

 P.S.

 Totally unrelated, but check out these cool old Breyers I picked up at a farm toy show yesterday! In such great shape too! They were obviously never played with!

​& the Micro Mini Hazel I bought arrived on Friday! (Future sales piece) Such a gorgeous little thing!
