Penny Meyer's painting tutorial on a Mayan Warrior is in the current issue of Figure International Magazine. It is a 6 page spread with photos and detailed steps. Penny achieved the status of Grand Master at the 2011 SCAHMS awards show. She deserves it.
If I may also suggest for those of you in the IFFS/BFFS who are proficient painters or engravers, send articles with photos to FIM. This magazine is beautifully produced full color on glossy stock paper. Just imagine the exposure the "flats" world could get. In fact, it is getting a great deal of exposure through the several articles on flats that have already appeared in the magazine. Mike Taylor had an excellent article on "Boats on the Ancient Nile" in 2011.
I happened to take a photo of the piece related to the article and posted it on my site along with several other flats she entered into a show. You can see them at www.flattinfigures.com
