Onema painting

[skrubbles]

I sat down last night and wanted to see if I can increase my speed painting... this one took me 3 hours in painter, and could probably use some more work... please tell me what you think.

Great sense of action

Finishing it further in some areas (face?) may help but watch out not to break the action and the dynamic quality!

Cool!

It's not perfect, but I don't think I'll get around to putting more time into it... I know there are some places that need work (like the guns and the pants)... other areas that are kinda gritty I left as is because I liked the feel of it.. as for the overall painting I know I could have done better and I was talking to jrr in chat the other day about technique and I'm all geared up for my next painting.
