Should have this finished soon...

I'm putting a transparent layer of cobalt blue on the smaller boys shorts, and quinacridone gold on the others. Then a bit of lifting of highlights with a clean damp brush and I think that part is done. The shadows have knocked back and become part of the local color. I've defined the eyes and facial features some more and indicated the patterns on the shirts on top of yesterdays shadows, without too much detail, I have to watch myself constantly to not get bogged down in finicky details. Now I have to think about making sense out of the background next.

My goodness, the detail is amazing but you make it look so easy! It's fantastic!
