I totally forgot to post the pencil outline of this! Thanks go to LewieP from savygamer for playing the game to get the screen shots I needed, and thanks to Terry Cavanagh (the dev) for giving me permission to paint it!
Here's the source image I'm working from:
I forgot to take a picture of the pencil outline (oops) so here it is with the black part already started:
Bottom half:
Top half:
And yes, that's the messy painting area I work in!
Here's the whole thing so far:
Just to give you an idea of the scale, really, as its such a tall image compared to its width.
Welcome to canvas and paints, I hope you like what you find here. This is a step by step account of the paintings I do, from pencil outline to finished piece. I mainly paint video game images to comission, to contribute to raising funds for 2 charities, Oxfam and Child's Play.

Professor Layton and the Last Spectre almost done
I've painted again today - I'm trying to finish this so I can post it tomorrow, as it has to reach Seattle before 8th December.
Here's where I'm up to :
And here's the figures painted in:
I'm planning on doing the inking in this evening, so I can post it off to Seattle in the morning.
If I do get it done, I'll upload another image.

Hitman is finished
As I promised myself, I spent this morning painting, and I've finished Hitman. It was raining, so I couldn't go outside to take photos, so I've taken 3 with flash, and 3 without, see which you prefer.
The whole thing:

Hitman almost complete
Yes! I've got my camera working again!!!
I took it to Jessop's, and the very lovely man there told me I'd been using the wrong type of battery - for the last 5 years! I was using AA, but I apparently needed AA with a wrap around to stop them moving about in the camera - £12.50 later I have a fully functioning camera.
This means I can update Hitman!

The flash has bounced all over the back of his jacket - I'll try to take an outdoors shot tomorrow if its not raining.
I expect I'll finish this tomorrow, as all I have left to do is the traffic to the right of Hitman and the railings.
