>Five Beaded Basilica Domes

Semi-beaded St. Mark's Basilica (Venice, Italy).

10" x 5.5" (24cm x 14cm)

Finally, more progress on my beaded St. Mark's Basilica! Now, five beaded domes cap this felt landmark. This is the same number of domes Basilica di San Marco has in real life, but by the time I am finished, it should appear that there are even more than that! In addition to doing the beadwork, I have also altered the felt that I have cut out just a bit. I want the felt shapes to appear as though they are slowly sinking. What else do you think I should do to help give that effect, and how do you think it looks so far?
