Description
Done nearly late enough to be considered early for 2017... seasons greetings (summer here in Australia) and all that my friends!Just as well I'm already loopy, because there is madness to be found in painting all those scales.
Pencil sketch, paint in photoshop.

He really ought to see a doctor about those antlers on his head...maybe he just isn't aware they're there?

They seem to pop up every christmas
I had a string holding them in place in the sketch, but kind of forgot to add it in for the painting.... shhhhhh, don't tell anyone

Well he is a devilish croc! Took about 5 days when all the time is added up (just spread out over a longer period of time) - 3 of those just painting scales

Thanks! I have painted a few motorbikes, and enjoyed it, but they are more a technical exercise, rather than a creative one.
