More scene painting

I've not had much time to do anything over the past week or two other than stuff for 'Guys and Dolls', our school production. Costumes, all sorts of props (including the puppet here), and the images for projection. Again, all done with Painter 5.5. This one was the most complicated. It's based on a whole lot of photos from the 1940's, mostly from the New York Public Library site. I used a black pencil line, then painted each bit with watercolour and rubbed out the drawing. All the text was floated over the top then dropped in when the watercolour layer was dried. I think this one took five or six hours to do. Anyway, it worked!
