Day 5 of Phoenix Rising

I had a day off from work this X-Mas Eve and have spent some of it working on Phoenix Rising.  I used most of my time working on getting many of the forms back to their correct shapes and reestablishing rock edges.  I also filled in the main surfaces with some more basic washes to better their tones and forms.

I experienced the glare problem again during today's progress video even with all the shades closed, so I might try to hang an extra sheet up next time.  On the plus side, my new computer's updated MovieMaker program recognizes my camera's output file type so I no longer have to spend the extra few hours converting the files in order to edit them.  This also means that instead of purchasing a simple video camera in the near future, I'm going to hold off until I can afford a new dSLR camera with HD video functions.
