Arcade Progress...

Another Pass

I've been messing around in Photoshop with the gradient tool, overlay so I thought I would apply the same principal to my painting.  I used a mix of thinner, wax medium, and japan drier to glaze the painting and create more texture.

A Taste of the Old School

My friend Javi and I are painting the sides of an arcade cabinet that he's revamping back to fully functional arcade play of every single Nintendo game.  It's taking longer that I thought it would though.  0_o
