Description I'm determined to figure out how to render draped fabric in ink, so I'll be doing a few of these.  Looking to Franklin Booth and Joseph Clement Coll for advice...

This was done with a Super G nib, brush, and a bit of Copic multiliner for touch up.  Click to view full size! (Edit: uploaded a better scan)

The reference was this picture from the lovely .  I was striving more for technique than accuracy.


As always, comments and critique are welcome.  See my other drapery studies:

It looks.. very real. Absolutely fantastic linework - in fact, I wouldn't expect anything else from you (:

Thanks!  I think the technique still needs some work, but I'm getting there...
