Bearded man update

Just a quick update on the progress of my Bearded Wise Man painting, it's taking shape, I've just completed the basic shadows. I'm now able to start intensifying shadows and the light, and start adding details into the trees like bark and mushrooms. Add some leaves and texture to it. Then I think I'll finish off with the man. The glowing orbs are still 50/50 at the minute.

It's taking shape isn't it?! Hopefully will finish this soon and be able to carry on with my chicken animation. Had a sneaky peek at the other contestants work, I think I'm in with a chance!
