Absolutely beautiful shading. Very, very impressive. Probably the best pencil work I've seen on here. Well done, it's brilliant.

THanks!


But if you really want to see jawdropping pencil work, you should check out *nimra I'd give body parts to do that.....

this is a good use of artistic liberty. I like how you left the detail out of the flourishes and simplified the light. But still managed to capture the important.

Wowwwww O_O
the shading is AMAZING!! *touches screen* it looks so real! Er....apparently the person that commented before me doesn't agree, but i honestly think so. I couldn't ever do anything that good! Excellent job Especially on the little tie-string things..... they look very believable and not needlessly loopy as many people tend to make them.

As someone already said, the shadows could use more work. I also think the line of the top of the mask could be more smooth. Other than that I think it's very well done, great shading and detail.

Ahh, venetian, beautiful. It reminds me of something I would see teh scarlet pimpernelle wearing, not to many draw of history. I like that you did. It is not the most refined piece, but it is something to look at. Give a frame or a background, or just leave it there for just a glance.

Thank you...I love old things and history...and the Scarlet Pimpernel. I will look at what I can do to clean it up a little.
