So I haven't painted much this year and I can't believe it is almost over. I am working on a couple boxes 1 of them actually commissioned the other 2 just my wacky inspirations.
I thought would share on commission. It is a work in progress...
This is a box for a former marine. I decided to paint his portrait on the top of the box. Probably the smallest portrait I have ever done. Took me a couple tries to be happy with.
The person who ordered the box wanted me to incorporated messages like "Thank you for your service!", "You're My Favorite Marine!" and "You'll Always be My Hero!"
So I had some little miniatures and decided to make them holding posters with the messages.
I still have more to paint on the inside. I am going to paint the marine's flag inside the top. I then have to seal and gloss the top and bottom. Oh, add another miniature in the front.
I linked this with Paint Party Friday.
