It looks pretty awesome, especially for two hours.

I like it

Thanks! Yeah there's a lot of stuff I would've liked to fix up on this one, but the group I did it for has a 2 hour time limit, and I ran outta time. Maybe next time!

you can only do so much in 2 hours.
So in that case: awesome!

Wonderful work here Dierat, great colour representation and lighting... you can clearly see subject and texture here so a complete success. With only a little more time to soften up some areas this would give more refinement. But this could have been down to the time of two hours given? But You got all the key factors down... and with great brush work! well done!

Thanks for the detailed comment! Yeah I'm so slow, I was kind of surprised I even got this far with it. There's still a lot I would've liked to do with this one, but it also showed me that there's a lot of room for improvement in my process in terms of efficiency. Thanks again!

You are most welcome... i think many people think the same once they have such a small deadline to work to... i was painting like mad trying to get this little duck done. But over time you will probably surprise yourself at how much quicker you will naturally get... OR... how much more you can achieve in the same time frame

So long as you see where to improve and you have the desire or determination to do so... your on a good path to developing your abilities! Great work again and i look forward to seeing more from you!
