Hey, thanks for all of the kind comments. I try to reply to all of my comments at some point, but I keep very busy (not necessarily a bad thing, right?). I will send you a note momentarily. I see what you're saying about the contrast, and will keep that in mind for the future. I was worried about making the image 'muddy' if I went to dark, and I would be unable to erase or change it. Well, thank you, Naomi. I think...

He's actually one of my favorites - poor guy, though.

Yep, he was poor (prolly in more ways than one).

You don't!?! It has a deep and mysterious meaning that you shall never find out.

oanalivia [2011-11-16 12:58:15 +0000 UTC]

This is really amazing

When you say "100% ballpoint pen" you mean you don't even do a sketch in pencil ? You go directly with the pen ?

bluefootednewt In reply to oanalivia [2011-11-16 17:03:35 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, Oana!

Yes, everything is in ballpoint pen! But! It all started with a circle.
I built the forms very similarly to how Andrew Loomis teaches.
And remember, Oana! You can do it too! Practice! Practice! Practice!
