TRYING SOMETHING NEW

In an attempt to loosen up some of my final line work, I decided to try something different. Instead of using a lightbox to tighten up my rough pencils, I decided to try printing them out in non-photo blue and drawing over them with a "B" pencil. B's are softer than the 3H's I usually use.


The method worked pretty well until last night when I realized I had to completely redraw one of the figures on the page I was tightening up. The page looks kind of messy now, but will look ok once all the blue is taken out. I might have to return to the lightbox.
