As promised, here is brother no. 2 of the Morse clan, Tennessee. The scan looks very washed out to me, so I may redo it for the final plate, but here he is in the meantime. I approached painting this character with a lot of trepidation because I knew if there was anything that looked even slightly off about him, it would be a total loss, but I was pleasantly surprised by the results (another good argument for just jumping in and not thinking about things too much).
And now that I have done Tennessee, I want to go back and re-do Razi-el, but I am going to restrain myself from that at the moment. Maybe later I will just re-do Razi-el's face (it's already been PhotoShopped a lot because of problems I had painting it). This face came out excellent. Once again, the hair is a tiny bit flat, but I'm happy with it overall.
I am especially happy with the skin tone (though again, this looks washed out). One of the mistakes I made with Razi-el is that his skin color is too dark (the fault of him being the first character I painted, and therefore the "experiment" with the skin tone I had mixed). This is another reason I am tempted to re-do Razi-el.
I will try to work on some clothes for the Morse brothers this weekend so that they won't be so naked. I am also redesigning the plates because I have decided the current layout is too much of a reduction and I don't
