I've managed to whittle away at the pile of leaves the last few days. They all have some green on them now. I still need to go over them again, at least once, but progress should be realized much faster now. The fox sculpting, on the other hand, is promising to go much slower. We'll look at that one at a later date. (Hover over image to enlarge)
Yes, it's been a while. Partly because I haven't done much (at least it seems like it) and partly because I haven't been ambitious enough to post anything. Here are the leaves again. They've all been textured and I'm starting on the color. After some time figuring out the best way to paint them, I decided to start with a yellow around the edges and then overlay green on top. In the photo, you can see leaves in several stages. On the left is a large pile with only yellow on them. In the center pile, I've started adding green. To the right of the paper palette is a small pile that has green added to the back. The majority of the backs will be hidden, so I'm not too concerned about detailing them.
