VOTE FOR ME ON ART BATTLE LA!
—
I have been chosen as a contender on Art Battle LA and now I need your votes! For anyone who is curious about Revival, it measures 26”x38”, the biggest illustration I have ever done. The mediums I have used are pencil and gouache. I want to thank you all for your support! Click here to vote :)
My little lady is slowly coming along. I think I spent about 5 hours today working on the hair.
| Q: | Your illustrations are stunning. They really capture another world and atmosphere. Keep up the good work. I've a question regarding tools! What type of pencils do you use for your drawings? Just watched the DARK WINGS video, they don't look like graphite. Are they black colouring pencils? Best wishes, Penny. |
| A: | Thanks a bunch Penny! It may look like black coloring pencils but it is indeed graphite. I layer from 6H to 4B to achieve the black I want. A tad tedious, but I’m always happy with the result! Cheers :) |
