That's good excellent detail. Many other attempts I've seen at drawing the Arc have scrimped on the details present at the top of the structure and you managed to capture it quite well. And good use of wash. In short, it's my kind of picture.

I did however, notice that your draughting lines for the vanishing point are still present - was that intentional?

Thanks, glad you like it! I know some of the pencil lines are still visible. I guess I just liked how it looked, so I left it in.

Oh, and you mentioned wash. Its actually marker. I used three Prismacolor markers, all different shades (10%, 30%, and 50%) of the same color ("Warm Grey").

Looking at it closer, I realized that, yes, it is obviously marker. I really should up my resolution.
