Hard work and no sleep makes Gecko effective!
Finished something at the expense of my exposure to sunlight. This time it's a lighthouse on a foggy evening:
Made in Paint Shop Pro 6 as just about all my other pics, this one took about 5 hours in making.
And then theres the fullsize version as usual.
A few comments & suggestions would be nice :]

The pic actually ended up being something totally different than what I thought when I started working on the sketch.
I'm very happy with it, though, so I'm just gonna move on to a new painting and leave it as it is.
I checked your page, Wildkat, and those online drawing board pieces were incredible!
damn Frost, woulda been cool to see your version of the topic :]
Gordillo, nori, thanks for the kind words.
I thought I'd share a couple of early steps that I took with the pic:
This is the fast sketch for the composition and basic shapes:
And here are the lighthouse proportions somewhat corrected:
Thanks for your time, ppl.
