The Stump Tortoise, painted

Description

Good lord, finally! I actually finished painting him before the holidays, but didn't get around to photographing/editing photos til now.

Painting tree bark is probably more frustrating than sculpting it, because trees are an odd colour. It's not quite brown, or tan, or grey, and on an old stump there's dashes of greens and blacks and weird unidentifiable colours.

This is beautiful. I like the details, the scales and all, and the mushrooms on the stump are really a nice touch. The colors are also excellent. I guess it took a long time to complete, but it was definitely worth it!
