Work in Progress: Winter Fox Part 3

Welcome to Part 3 of the Winter Fox painting. Make sure to check out Part 1 and 2 to catch up to now.

Now that the fox has been roughed out we can start to work on some of the dark areas and make the fox more opaque.



As well as working on some of the darks of the eyes, ears, and nose I've also worked a little on the fur edges that overlap the background. I've let some of the leaves fall in front and behind the fox but I'm probably going to introduce a new branch to 'tuck' the fox in. I've also added some lighter touches to the fox's brush and some base colours for a few whiskers.

A lot of dark colours have been added towards the back and rear of the fox as these areas will sit in shadow with the front in much brighter light. I've also added the snow onto the leaves behind.

In Part 4 we'll build up the fur and add the highlight colours into the eyes and face so they really 'pop'.

More to come Tuesday.
