Nice drawing! I love how the dark shaded area on the left side of the face makes the whole portrait stand out more. Very cool!

I admire what you're doing, Kaputnik. There's real originality there. I draw a bit myself, just my own feeble attempts at humour but I know what it means to commit yourself to the challenge of a sheet of white paper.
This theme is not new, I think I know it since about 20 years and I always liked it.
So now I thought it is time to create my own version of it.
The inking is down with a Pentel Pocket Brush, afterwards I colored it with water colors, the final touch ups are made with colored pencil.

Nice one Ptero. You made my day :)
Thanks a lot Yazeh, glad you like it :)
Today something darker.
I had to try the white charcoal pencil from my new Conte set again.
I really like that white charcoal pencil, it is less chalky than e.g. the Cretacolor pencils, kind of smoother.

So often I wanted to have an own thread necromancy picture to be used in the forums I participate.
So now I´ve created one, used the white chalk drawing from before and created it in Procreate.

I recently saw a fabulous animation named WolfWalkers. I haven't seen drawing so exquisite in a long time...
I thought you guys, might enjoy it, if you haven't seen it already :)

I want to get better at figure drawing with pen and ink.
So this is my latest fountain pen drawing.
It is done using my vintage Pelikan Ibis fountain pen, in a last touch up I emphasized the hatched shadows slightly with a pencil to give it a bit more depth.

Thanks 😊
There are better and worse days, but overall it should go into the right direction.

I prefer this one, by far. The pose looks more natural.... Like the dying swan :)
this is NOT art!

Well done Usk, I like the perspective. :)
This is my latest fountain pen drawing, again figure drawing practice.

You've been very busy ;)
Do you start your sketches with pencil and then switch to Fountain pen or you start and finish with fountain pen?
