i am sorry, jake, for being late. this is a redo for assignment 6. i should have worked on the final piece but could not get my hands off of this one. i would work on it more and other stuff if i had more time, but i gotta go to work right now before it is too late. anyway, thank you very much! i will finish the final piece eventually and show you. thanks for your help. i have learned so much how to digitally paint. your are a great teacher!!
