Kuru toga mechanical pencil 0.5 in green. Hands down the best gift with purchase I’ve ever had. Until the lead ran out. So I’ve ordered more lead, because its a special lead, that doesn’t instantly snap. Shaws ballot pencil. Lamy Safari fountain pen, fine nib. I wish I’d gotten the extra fine nib now. Oh […]
Mask. Reference from Letzteschatten-stock. Well I think the month has helped me get better at drawing, and noses, but I still need to work on drawing smoke. This photos a bit lighter than the original as it was to dark, but I didn’t really notice until now as I was galloping out the door to […]
Found. A tenuous link to the theme but I fell in love with this stock image by Chirinstock, that turned up when I searched for ‘found’ because she found the leaves to put in her hair. I went to dark to fast on the background, and I was aiming for more expressive hatching, but overall […]
United Overall happy with this one. Was heavy handed with the shading on the cheeks, so they look like hairy tears, I think a more expressive line might work better for when I don’t have a chance to hatch the whole piece out. Reference from Senshistock. I used my kuru toga mechanical pencil, sailor fude […]
Fall Stock by Senshistock Over all pleased with this one. Facial expression! Sense of movement. Shame the hands and the right side of her face aren’t quite right. I did take my time with the hatching, which is the only way to do it. Quick sketchy line drawings and slow hatching. I can’t resist awash […]
Climb To get to the top you’ve got to climb. Very quickly done with my sailor 40 degree fude pen and carbon ink. Don’t feel like I did the reference material justice, but that’s what I got done, and i don’t have time to restart it today. Reference is from: Anettfrozen Squeak If you’ve read […]
Climb To get to the top you’ve got to climb. Very quickly done with my sailor 40 degree fude pen and carbon ink. Reference is from: Anettfrozen Squeak If you’ve read the Discworld novels, you’ll know. This is the death of rats, and even if the rat catcher doesn’t believe in reincarnation, reincarnation believes in […]
Ship. I used to read epic fantasy when I was a kid, I had read all the kids books in the library and then over on to epic fantasy (and the discworld) I read a series called Live Ships, where the figure heads could talk, navigate and fight back against invaders. Half way through sticking […]
Blind. References from Attemptestock I started this on the morning of the 24th before work, but I knew I wouldn’t have time to get it finished. As it was such a beautiful stock image I wanted to take more time over it and do delicate ink washes, so factoring in that drawing faces and hands […]
Finally, caught up and on track. Although I spent two hours on this, it didn’t all go well. However I was able to pull some of it back. Still always more to work on, faces at funny angles/foreshortening. I have managed to embrace what a splotchy wash the ink I’m using makes. Now I except […]
