I think it looks pretty good!

Ah David, You have painted a good what I presume to be, traditional British Breed sheep. These sheep breeds grow very short thick fibre wool and that is what their wool (let's not call it a fleece) looks like; - so good wool texture would be difficult. If you want a good wool sheep, best paint an Australian Merino Fine wool sheep, :-)) Cheers

David, I forgot to add that you have actually painted a pretty fine specimen of a clearly recognisable breed of sheep; so well done. At UQ al those years ago, the Engineers and the Vets had a very enjoyable rivalry and many great games of rugby. If you want to send you a great sheep breed, my email is in my profile. Cheers

Looks great, .I would question the choice of background however, he looks like he is in the sky

Thanks paintingblondie .. thank you.. I think you are being very kind.

Thanks DaveJ I might take you up on that offer happy painting you ...

Thanks tel, I obviously didn't finish it .. didn't paint any background at all.. just gave up .. oh well live and learn ..

Wool looks really good to me. Nice job!

Thanks Tonym I didn’t think it looked right .. maybe I should finish it at some point .. thanks and happy painting to you
