Artist's Comments

This is what happens when I cant sleep. I draw Nicky Wire. Whilst watching Big Train. And drinking hot chocolate. Yum. three of my favourite things.

Um, drew this and the Edgar pic in about 4 hours. 12 to 4 am.

Markers on marker paper, touched up with white watercolour. Contrast fiddled with in photoshop.

I agree how do u get markers to blend on his face. Or is that water color? I like your different uses of your mediums. I also like that u work very fast U draw and finish it the same night props to that. U seem to work like that alot. I on the other hand set it down come back to it the next day ect.

Wow, it looks fantastic. Nice job on the shading, and I think red is the perfect background colour. :rose:

I have a blender marker for the face, which comes in very useful! Also, using lighter colours to blend is quite a simple way of doing it. I only use white watercolour for the highlights, because I'm too lazy to find my acrylics :p And I only use fineliner for the fine strands of hair, or eyelashes or something like that.

I find that if I'm really into a piece of work, I wont stop til I've finished it. If I do stop, I'll just forget and start other drawings. Thats why college work annoys me cos of all the research and breaking up of lessons.

thanks for the comment!

letrastet pro markers and tria markers, white watercolour for the hightlights, black .2 fineliner for the strands of hair, and occasionally pencil crayon to lighten/darken a colour...

Tight thanx for letting me know Im gonna get a marker blender for sure I have alot of markers but I had no idea u could blend them till I saw your work. I love that Johnny Depp painting/markeer/watercolor I fav it 4 sure. Thats probably the sickest peace of art I have ever seen would you sell the original? Or could I get a print?
