Personal Project Update 1

Here is an update to the Personal Project I uploaded a couple of days ago.
This is showing the end part of Phase 2, which is the foam characters.
In the second picture, I have a pretty good start on Phase 3, the coloring of the background and adding characters as I go along.
By the end of today, I ended up pretty much all done with the main layer of color. I used Kodak Yellow, White, Derwent Studio (Deep Vermillon, Crimson Lake, Ivory Black, Grass Green, and Orange Chrome).
From the Gallery pencils I used, 4 shades of Green, 2 shades of Blue, 2 shades of Yellow, Red, and Brown.
For the drawing portions I used nothing but my 2B mechanical pencil.
All together so far, with what was accomplished today, I'm about 9 hours into it so far. Next step, is adding details, shading, and a few surprise attempts......



Note from Kerry:
Michael, this was a lovely surprise! It looks brilliant! Man, you are gooood.
