A land across the ocean..

So it has been about 3 months since I took a trip to New Zealand so I thought I would share some of my photos. Sadly as we passed through Milford Sound it was misty, cloudy and raining so I cant say my photos are the best. The other photos are in Dunedin where it was lovely and sunny!

 











Here are some animal shots! The native wildlife!

A bit about my process

So here I am showing you all these finished pictures, and I thought why not show you some of my process! Maybe I should make a time lapse video (I will for the next image I choose) so I thought I would show you my progress picture of Bob Marley. So here he is!


So basically I start out with a pretty basic outline of all the features the start shading. Then I get onto the more delicate features! This has taken me about 1 and a half hours. I was doing his hair but I didn't like it one bit! 

Here are the rest!
