Shield progress- so shiny!

I'm loving the gold. I really am!

Years ago I made a little silk banner from deep red silk and a gold Crowned R on it and this just matches so well! There's still a lot to do- the background roses and vines and I feel like though I like the darker pink in the low-lights, I want a little more contrast and will repaint with a slightly browner tone.

I feel this will also be a re-do on the Amore shield with the blue and gold to make the low-lights stand out just that bit more as well. Meanwhile, I'm very happy with the progress so far on this one.

The Squirrel Shield, meanwhile, continues to be not-quite-red-squirrely enough and needs further painting.
