Another application of a blue tone - just at the bottom of the image this time - will complete the grasses:
I think this leaves us with four different greens in the print, although one of them, on the tail, is very similar to part of the grass, and wouldn't really get noticed as being distinct ...
Next is the final 'highlight' tone block on the turtle shell:
We continue 'filling in' areas that need more depth, with a gradation on the rocks - bottom up:
In the home stretch now, but still too much for a single day's work. The next two blocks are both a bit difficult to print, but they'll transform our image. Looking at this now, what do you think it still needs? Anything 'missing' that you can determine? (And I don't mean the outer border embossing pattern, which will come after everything else is done ...)
