Description My entry for the NeoGAF BlazBlue cover competition. I decided against inking it in just because I like it too much in pencil. Thanks to everyone who helped with my WIP - I'm much happier with this version.

Hm. I definitely enjoy the grittiness that the pencil work conveys. It really reflects Ragna's grim and loner rogue personality.

You did a really nice job with the face and coat; there's certainly a sense of structure to it that I like. And then there's the red-- which looks like clouds of red smoke-- or bloody vapor-- rising from him.

Definitely cool.

This is truly epic Simon! I would have left it in pencil also, it has a nice effect!

Thanks! It's a lot more fun without inking, too.

Very nice work! I'm always a fan of pencil work over inking, so much more fluid. Fantastic.

marchie [2009-09-12 19:11:09 +0000 UTC]

I agree! The pencil texture really works here, gives the whole image softer but darker.

Good luck!

Thanks! I just can't believe I managed to fluke something like that when I was really planning to ink it in but all sketchy. xD

Very nicely done. I agree, the pencil only makes it very powerful. Good luck in the competition!
