It's done!!! :) Yahoo! Adjusted the shading, sky and filled in all those little details like veins in the Apple leaves :D

Apple House - cont'd cont'd

Added in the background foliage, grass and shrubbery in front and flowers and butterflies. Almost done! :D

The Apple House - cont'd

First stage in the colouring process - blocking in sections with solid colour. I wanted a purple underpainting to show through for the apple and stone whereas the grass, foliage and other elements will have a dark blue underpainting. The door and other wooden bits are coloured in here.

2nd stage in colouring - colour and texture on the apple! I like how the shine worked out :) Also added the ambience with blue sky and clouds. Though I will rework the clouds when I find some reference to the fluffy kinds I was trying to do! Not quite satisfied with these ones yet :) Clouds are haaaard!

That's the progress so far! This will come out as a print by end of this month so don't forget to check out my Facebook Fan Page - Yün! Thanks! :D
