Hey Everyone,
Here is the actual final painting of my skulls painting project. It took me some time to do, but I'm happy with the results. The red skull is my favorite part of the piece, and I spent a lot of time into that one  . Let me know what you think.Media: Oil Paints, 6 Filbert brush, 6 Flat brush, 10 Filbert bush, 10 Flat brush, 2 Filbert brush, 2 round brush, 36''x24'' Canvas, paint thinner, and 4 weeks of hard work into this painting  .

 Nice!
Maybe you could try it with a bit more contrast... Just a thought...  Keep it up -- -=elgrizzly=-  Nice work. You're improving as well. Try playing with the darker shading abit here and mixing you're colors more.
 I like the use and blend of colors with the lighting and shading!!! This is awesome big brother! ^w^

I'm not sure what approach you were supposed to be taking for blending the two images together, but I almost feel like it's a little abrupt. Was there another way you could've blended the colors together?
I feel the color choices are nice, but I also feel like some things need a little more work and definition. Particularly the candle holder. I feel like it's getting a lost in space and the picture just drops off behind it. Would it have been allowed to show a little bit of the table behind it? I'm not sure on the exact specifications of the assignment.
Overall a very nice blend. Great job!
