Step6 The hairs of the lion I painted at this stage of the painting just to get the basic colours in place, the details will come later.

Step7 A detail of the lions ears, still with the same colour mix and taking care that the airbrush is now closer to the surface so the hairs will become sharper.

Step8 Ok...this stage is finished, the re- sult so far...The hair of the lion has more detail then in step 6.

Step9 Before continuing with the li- ons I first will finish the background, also with transparent black I painted some shadows...

Step10 ...and now to add some colour with a mix of brown, yellow, ochre and red.

Step11 Also layer by...

Step12 ...by layer until I am satisfied with the background colour.

Step13 Now the details...with a sharp knife I scratch the hairs on the lions body...this takes some time. Important thing here is that you take care of the direction you scratch the hairs so it will have a natu- ral look.
