Hey there ... yes I'm sure I did. I usually try to mix and match photo reference and then thumb suck certain elements that I'm comfortable to do from memory ... but i cant remember exactly where the ref for this painting came from.

Okay, thanks for answering!
One more thing... how old are you(so I can set a deadline for myself to be as good as you at painting)?

Its a pleasure ... thanx for the kind words
Most of the traditional paintings (like the one here) I have posted here on DA were done while I was 23 - 25 years of age. I have been doing art professionally for a lot longer though. The oldest picture I have posted here is this one [link] ... its from when I was between 18 and 19 years of age.
Hope that helps you in some small way.

Okay, well in that case I have plenty of time!
Just kidding, I need to get on the ball... I've been slacking off art wise and I just need to get my momentum back somehow.
Thank you for your help!
