Sunday Night Special

Work in Progress on Nathaniel 'Hawkeye' Bumppo


Nearly finished Hawkeye, I want to go back and tidy up some of the edges, but he mostly done. The colour palette of creams and tans seems very muted compared to my normal range of paints. But I suppose I will get a big dose of colour when I paint the Indians in their warpaint, and British and French regulars. 



When I looked for a photo of Daniel Day Lewis for reference, I was reminded that the film came out in 1992. I can't believe it!

  2. Great work. That film really was excellent, although I admit I've never read the book.
