Painting the Magic Moustache Bus

Today I completed the re-inking of the Magic Moustache Bus, also known as picture #3, and started painting it. But, the more I looked at the line work, I realized that I wanted to touch it up here and there. I ended up spending another hour going over work I did yesterday, and probably removed some of the charm by straightening some endearing wobbly lines. I’d better get this picture finished before it becomes a mental roadblock.

I finally have the color palette memorized for all of the major characters: the Jay family, Buddy Butterfly, and the two mouse stowaways. It’s taken 5 months. I wonder if other artists have a problem sticking to their color palettes?

This is a preview of picture #3 in Kindle Create. Of course, the painting is incomplete.
