I have just hammered through and finished a whole bunch of commissions and finally i can now work.on my own piece!!
I started again, re outlined my idea. I’ve taken a photo to show you, i have decided to be open about this piece and share the steps with you, help you explore how i do my art.
So step one, layout.  This one i did do something slightly different and actually measured locations rather than just free hand estimate.  Mainly cause it is so big, and there is so much i want to include.  So many layers and elements.
