I am working on the Morse brothers right now and thought I would post Michigan Morse today since he is finished. He is the older of the two brothers and although I struggled with his hair (dang, those antebellum haircuts!), I think he came out okay. I really wanted him to have wilder hair ~ more pompadour, more unruly ~ and definitely curlier. But I seem to have problems making hair look curly. I will have to work on that. Also, really, his hair should be more mousy-brown (my browns are just too dang dark ~ another thing I really need to work on).
If the hair bothers me too much, I will repaint it and do a PhotoShop fix, but for now I can live with it--especially since I like the way his face came out.
I haven't begun working on his clothing, so hopefully you will continue to be patient. That, and I know I still haven't figured out the best way to post stuff ~ downloadable from the post? In the gallery? I continue to be grossly disorganized. But at least I am painting, right?
If I get ambitious, I will hopefully have the younger of the two brothers ready to post for tomorrow. He's partly painted right now, but I am being skittish about doing his face since I have so much trouble with Razi-el (who I may yet re-do--just the face, though).
Both Michigan and Tennessee are in their early twenties when the story begins--a nice ripe age for an imminent war, unfortunately. I will be working on their seven sisters eventually, but it will be a while.
