Ontos's Photos

Love the fox photos Merv. We had several in the coal mine I worked at and if they thought you had food, they would sit patiently and wait.

Cool shots Merv!

Thanks Aaron, VB, Geo and Hugh for looking and glad you all like the pictures.

Geo, I do think he might have thought I had something for him. One thing I don't do is leave things out for these critters to eat. One night I had four Raccoons on my patio, to many for my comfort.

I just finished the Bf-109, it came out a little darker than I wanted. I'll have to go a little slower with the pen and not as hot, practice, practice, practice opinions and critique please.

I love it!!!!!!! The detail is excellent Merv. You have done a superb job!

Thanks Aaron, greatly appreciated, still working on trying to get the ocean to look right. My daughter told me yesterday that a fellow employee wanted me to do a P-38 for him, then today she told me he changed his mind and wants me to do a Peterbilt Truck, this will be a first, and a challenge if it's got a lot of chrome

Amazing work, Merv!
I love it.

Love those kitten shots and the fox is remarkable. They are very curious by nature and I have seen several instances where they will get close to people out of curiousity more than the prospect of treats.

Great shots at the PoF and once again, you've out-done yourself with your woodburning!

 

[Gnomey]

Nicely done Merv!

 

[ontos]

Thank you Shinpachi, Dave and Hugh, the burn was done on paper so I do need a lot more practice.

I thought the Fox seemed a little tame, but I didn't want to get to close to him, he was cute though. Maybe next time he'll let me pet him, or maybe not

Just remember, the chrome on the truck will be the lightest material unless the truck is white or yellow. So you can leave it plain with a slight reflection if needed but that would be a judgement call.

 

[ontos]

Thanks Aaron, He hasn't given me the picture of his truck yet. I hope it's a dark color with chrome.

Reflections are your friend.

Wonderful work, man. Just fookin' wonderful. And might I say that over the years that you have been posting your work is getting better and better. I'm utterly impressed.

 

[Wayne Little]

Agree with you there Matt!

Excellent work Merv.

 

[ontos]

Thanks Wayne and Matt for your encouraging comments.
