Painting Dedication to You Guys : Minerva Gears

This will be a painting dedication to my 2 lovely sisters kAoTiCwOnDeR &  CaptainCassieArt , HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SISTERS !!!

And also ,TO ALL MY WATCHERS !!!!  , its been really a crazy 4 months and I have really grown and learn with you guys . There are happy times and of course there are depressing times but hey , dont we all still have each other to watch each others back  

This entire thing looks really simple to do but it isnt , it took me about 2 hours or so to play around with the comb and then started to work on this officially for more then 15 hours to complete . I am trying my best to replicate a "brush stroke" like texture and strokes and its really really hard but it can still be done and I hope you can see the replication of those finer "brush lines" , I hope it passes for a brush stroke ! Also , I only have like 2 combs to play with (hotel combs) so I better not break any and if I  Screwed up , I am done ! So far , its been a ROYAL PAIN IN THE ASS to paint this but lucky for me , I have experience using palette knife paintings so I have got a stepping stone .  I do not like the usual , patches and patches of paints all over the place and there you have it , palette knife painting (Mainstream)

Lovely thing about comb is , there are flat surface , there are sharp surfaces , there are round surfaces . With that , I can go into finer and more precise details such as the above , lucky for me I have some rough references to work on if not , creating a whole new artwork will take a even longer time ! Cheers for combs !
