Progress

I've made a little progress since last time. I feel like I'm almost done with the first one and with the second but the last one has a lot left to do. It's really just tedious filling and shading but I think I'm getting a lot out of it. Expecially since I'm going for photo-realism, this is really improving those set of skills. Which was the point really.

The first two don't have the pencil lines underneath because this is what they looked like when I was working on them last. I would have taken a screen shot but I havne't figured that out yet.
