Description Next station on our journey is Breva, a seaport south of Midsand. For the night they stay at an old storage building.
The scenery is showing William who watches the great bridge.

The statue at the bridge derives from an old legend. It a fisherman's wife waiting all day for her husband to come back home. But he never returns from sea and she is still waiting there and welcomes every ship that reaches the harbour of Breva...

Thank you. It was really hard to draw a night scenery with ordinary pencils. Glad it works.

I really like this peice. The detail is amazing. The only thing I would change is it is a little too full of Middletons for my taste...more, as my old Art teacher would say it, "light lights" and "dark darks" would be nice. Still overall a wonderful job.

I guess that's the problem when you want to draw a night setting. Very difficult to handle the pencils... I'll try to improve that in future drawings.

Anyway, thank you very much!
