Another experiment in not coloring. I decided this time that I didn’t want to color (again), but that I might like to do some shading. Actually, I tried the shading 3 or for times (yay for saving a scan of the lineart) and this is the best I did, though the first attempt had some areas that I preferred. It’s the first time I’ve tried to shade with ink and hopefully I’ll get better and more consistent with practive. For now I’m going to consider this a success since there was a minimum (at least for me) of digital cleanup involved. My next few projects will probably be like this; I’d like to see what I can do with just ink.
Nothing particularly special about the pose, though I think it came out pretty well. For once drawing the hands didn’t murder me, though that right (her right) arm gave me some trouble getting a pose with the right perspective.
Note: I really do wish it were summer, just not for any reason that people might think from this picture. I’m just tired of it being cold.
