Week 1 - Cafe Mural - progress begins

 The previous mural was done mostly by hand and I utilized a more free-form approach; which was fullfilling in it's own right as such.  But with the illustrative nature and complexity of this mural, I am incorporating the use of a projector and a comp of my sketches to help speed the process.
 As you can see the projector had to be pulled quite a ways back, past its intended use making the images slightly blurry.  Though still having to rely on the original reference sketches and having to /battlecompensate for my own shadow blocking my view, it is still speeding up the process like I'd hope.
With the projector of, you can see how crisp the line-work is from a far; great thing about working large, any variances in the line thickness or quality gets lost from viewing it as intended, far away :)
