As promised, a front face drawing, done with the sketch method I showed in my attempt to do a tutorial. I wish I could redo it, but I'm posting one on ¾-profile on Sunday. I just have to remember to do the things differently then, that I would liked to change in the one I've done.

The drawing. It's cold and she is making sure that the zipper is all the way up. I like how the hand turned out. Hands and feet are my mortal enemies.

Frank. February 2019 Last Friday I finished watching The Man in the High Castle, and I was left in a whirlwind of emotions and the strongest desire to DO something. During the night I decided I needed a poster to hang above my bed. What better inspiration than Frank Frink? His character development touched me deeply. He gave me hope and reminded me of the importance of meaningful art. And the fight against all kinds of fascism. I used tempera for the background and watercolour for Frank (using it for the first time in years... I've been lucky!)

54 - Mr Darcy. The focus was on the clothes rather than on his face; pretty satisfied with the fact that he didn't turn out with a huge head, like my full figures usually do.

4 - sir Leon. Let's pretend I chose a cubist approach for his eyes, so we can justify they're too far apart. The rest of it is good and I loved drawing the best knight of Camelot. Even his chainmail.
