Thank you for all the encouragement guys, I appreciate it! If not for the positive reinforcement, I might not have been able to beat laziness today, but I’m glad I did :)

meat: Thank you :) Regenschirm, that’s a good idea indeed! Will have to try. Hanging a jacket didn’t help much last time, and instead just blocked even more of my view… Might even have a stool like that somewhere, but it means being even farther away from my laptop… D: I don’t mind sitting on the ground if it’s not wet… and if there are not too many beetles crawling in my clothes.

foxfire, thanks! It really is not that much trouble setting it up, just getting out laptop and tablet and sit down… but does need some shadow to sit in. I have no real process, other than „Find nice spot, sit down, paint what I see“ - mostly starting from the background and working with layers for important / foreground elements so that I can lock transparency and keep it from getting too messy.

27/04/15, 9 am, sunny with humid morning-air. Same spot like #581 (done from memory), but looks... completely different, lol!
Still not getting the greens quite right...
