Gorgeous work! I've always found charcoal frustrating to work with, but you handle it with such flair and confidence. The shading and colour blending are both superb.

Wow, that's wonderful! I'm not very good with charcoal...actually, I downright suck with it.

SpottedPegasus In reply to BoboVicieux [2005-04-11 22:59:48 +0000 UTC]

thanks. charcoal just takes a lot of practice. i suggest when you have somethng that you like even if you are not finished with it try Rave hair spray. Or a cheep hair spray if you do not have fixative. That will keep it from smeering forever.

BoboVicieux In reply to SpottedPegasus [2005-04-11 23:28:50 +0000 UTC]

Rave hair spray? Sounds exciting... I'll give it a try sometime. Thanks for the tip!

SpottedPegasus In reply to BoboVicieux [2005-04-12 00:01:26 +0000 UTC]

I know that it sounds wierd but it keeps the charcoal from smeering while you are working on it. It also keps you from erasing anything.

Whoa...Did yopu learn this somewhere or just accidently spray some on your work and realize it stops smugding?
