14 Paint the central frame detail

I am painting other characters slowly, as well as the wooden table and food/drinks on it. I am satisfied with the overall look, but now it seems that the focus is more on the foreground characters, than on Odin and the other Einherjars from the mid/background. The colours in the background are too light and soft, so I must build them more to achieve better balance. I paint the columns and knotwork with diluted colours in layers.
