Painting is hard.....

My first attempt at freehand symbol painting has gone marginally better than I expected but still isn't very good.

I'm attempting to copy the symbol from my 2nd Company banner that was originally done for me by my girlfriend several years ago.

My attempt at copying that on my Long Fangs shoulder pads turned out like this,

And a 'before tidying-up' close-up.

Still needs some work but I'm assured that practice makes perfect.....apparently.....
