Description This was my part of an art trade with - his Dark Souls 3 character The Iron Bull wearing the Exile armour set and wielding Vordt's Great Hammer. 

Took me forever to do as I've never done anything like this before, both subject-wise and shading-wise. Hope I didn't fail too hard. The scanner picked up on every little speck so it may be looking a bit too grainy, even though I tried my best to clean it up. Scanners can be mean like that.

Tools: HB mechanical pencil, graphite pencils 2B and 4B, blending stump, eraser, A4 paper + PS for the frost effects on the weapon

Very cool! I believe you took much time to finish... the drawing is full of details and looks very expressive too. You did well!

Thank you so much! And yes, it took way longer than I anticipated, but I think it was worth it!

Thank you! I actually think it might be THE very best one so far! It might be hard to top, but I'll try to keep improving.

Thank you so much, that means a lot! I really tried my best, but it was extremely difficult for me, since I have next to no skill.

Aww, come now. There is plenty of skill present, and as long as you hone it and practice frequently, you'll get better and better!

Awh, that's very nice of you to say. Thank you!
As for practicing and honing - it's a plan, buuut I have a problem with focus and the attention span of a puppy, so I find it hard to keep at something for an extended period of time without getting bored and having to move on to something else. So far so good, it's just exhausting! But I can live with that, I just hope I won't quit (again...).

Thank you! It was by far the most challenging piece I've ever worked on and to be honest - I didn't think I'd be able to make it look right. But I guess it's decent, given that I usually have no idea what I'm doing!
