Sploshes of Colour: Summer Heat 2


I hope that you haven’t been holding your breath since my last Sploshes post, because I haven’t really made that many changes since the last post and this one.

I’ve added eyes to the guy, and then added sunglasses, and then added a shadow over what we can see of him as the scorching hot sun is behind him. It’s meant to be scorching hot, anyway. It’ll be Winter by the time I get that feeling, but hey! a little Winter sun is always more than welcome. Anyway, as the sun is scorching, I’ve tried to make the tee shirt a little more clingy and the skin tones redder and shinier. Even in the shade.

It’s that hot!

Are you feeling the heat yet?

In the next Sploshes post, expect even more heat. But again, please, don’t hold your breath!

    Looking good so far!!! 🙂

    You certainly have a good eye for detail!!! 🙂

    Bedtime for me is 12pm and it is already 24.5’C in my bedroom – looks like another hot time in the old bed!!! 😉

    All this so I can go shopping tomorrow.

    God Knows how I’ll manage as I’m having real problems sleeping that need Zopiclone to give me an extra couple of hours!!! 😦

    God Bless!!! 🙂

      Thanks, Prenin – still more detail to add though.
      Hope you’re managing OK with the heat sleep-wise, grabbing bits here and there if needed.

        It helps that I’m back on the meds – stopping them has revealed some disturbing problems which indicate serious alterations to my brain chemistry.

        Looks like I’m addicted… 😦

        Sleep is better with them though and I feel better now I’m back on them! 🙂

        God Bless!

    I just have to go outside these days, Tom. Or stand in front of the window.

    I love how the eyes can be seen through the glasses. What temperature is hot?

      I like the eye effect too, Rebecca.
      As for hot, well, it’s the hottest you’ve been and then some. Hard to describe really; it just is. Uncomfortably so.

      He is, Icewolf. I don’t know how he does it. I’d be like a melted ice cream.
