Between commissions, while I was waiting for paint to dry, and after-hours, I sort of just... drew this thing on some paper I found. I had absolutely no idea in mind when I started and wasn't really sure just what I was up to during the process, either. Decisions were very immediate.

It's ballpoint and white gel pen on some mystery slate paper.

Sometimes it`s just best to let the hands take control. The linework is great and I think the paper end up adding much mood to the theme.

that's the idea :P I have been told many a time by the art instructors that drawing with a ballpoint pen is useful because you can't erase your mistakes. So when you draw the correct line in, you can compare.

that's an awesome idea :'D but it's pretty hard I guess xD
I tend to draw like ... millions of lines before I find the correct one xD My art teacher keeps telling to decide but I just ... cannot :XD: Well I merely started attending art classes so maybe with some practice it may work out. I shall try it as well :D
But don't you need to sketch things out? I mean where do you start if you don't have any sketchlines? ^^'

eh? But these are the sketches? If you mean like... a gesture, yes, I have those. If you look close, you can see them. But I have gotten used to doing minimal gesturing to get stuff done quick. I need to learn how to slow down :P

White gel pen!! What a good idea =) I've been faffing around with gouache, which is nice and opaque, but I can't get the tiny, consistent lines I want with a brush.
