I will not post an image of the original painting in this thread given I don't know what kind of copyright issues may exist. However, if you look at my progress after the first day, I'm sure you can find the original reference. The first day of working on a project like this is very difficult. The primary shapes need to be established as well as a camera position, focal length, and initial geometric sizes and depth. It's not easy to get all these things to come together!
