Thank you, just work with a wet rolling brush and then pull down a few times and a bit of luck. It was very easy as the likeness on the original was poor so it was perfect for me. I kept it very wet it was on thick paper. :grin: :) :8)

Yes please and all apologies about Time Tunnel,I am slow with my reference but it will work,God willingly! Right now I have something I think will please you Jane Fonda as Barbarella,once again great! :grin: :thumbup: :8)

 brainfree - 16/01/09, 19:25 reply
I love the twiggy's they are fab we should paint together you like the whole person I like the face or what makes them them. I'm working on two from Sin City the Alba and the other girl, both cowgirls and full length well as much as I can. Also I'm studing The Time machine the idea is taking shape first I think the stars, then the machine. :grin: :8)

 brainfree - 16/01/09, 19:25 reply
Jane Fonda excellent :grin:

 BeautifulDreamer79 - 16/01/09, 19:32 reply
She is 98% finished,should be up in another hour,may do Duran Duran and Pygar as well.J Phillip Law passed away and I love that film Diabolik,another interesting subject for painting.
