Hi Chuck - Thanks! Well you've managed to zoom in on the fudged part of the painting
... (That arm was repositioned in Paint Shop Pro in the reference photo to move the hands closer to the faces. The disappearing arm in the reference was how I hid adjustment... ) The apparent thickness of the fabric is not something I 'd noticed, but I agree... especially at the elbow and on the lower arm. I'll have to play with it a little more and see if I can't get it to read more believably. ...maybe reduce the value on the lower part of the arm and soften the top/front edge of the sleeve.
Thanks again!
