Geronimo Final Rendering

Geronimo's Last Night of Freedom- Greg Newbold; digital
Here is the final rendering for one of my Geronimo pieces. As I mentioned in my earlier post, I wanted to explore the color of night as Frederic Remington did so successfully. It was harder than you might think and I may have overplayed the subtlety of the colors, but think I captured the feel of night pretty well.

I really really really like this piece! Great job on the colors and I love the shadows!

This is spectacular! I love how it turned out.

Thanks Suzanne and Mike! The beauty of digital is that I can still do some tweaking, but it's 99% done here.

Gexton, it's hard to balance between trying to get the gallery thing going and continuing to make money illustration at the same time. I try to make the digital work feel as much like paint as as can though. Ihave almost dug out of a particularly busy stretch of illustrating, so look forward to some more paintings being posted soon.
