Peter Costa went off without a hitch, Roland De Wolfe needs some slight adjusting and Phil Ivey, who I've been looking forward to painting for ages and who I thought would make a real good portrait, fun and easy to paint etc. has been causing me an absolute nightmare. It's the curse of the Phils, with the only other player I found really difficult to get right being Phil Laak right back at the beginning of the collection. Arrrgh! However, I'm gradually turning something that looked NOTHING (and I really do mean nothing) like Phil Ivey into something increasingly resembling him, so fingers crossed I'll have some pics to post soon.
Other than the final touch-ups, some spray-varnishing and a few other bits and pieces that need taking care of the Gallery of Champions has been painted. I won't feel complete about it until the final lick of paint has gone on and I'm 100% happy with everything, but that isn't very far away. So hey! I'm off out tonight for a couple of drinks :-)
