Artist's Comments

after Tuareg i felt like making another drawing with a pen, but i didn't have time for it. until last week.
it's done with the same old BiC pen (well, i'm not sure if it was exactly the same one. i have a bunch of 'em :D)
this one took me longer because i wanted to make the shadings look softer by using the pen as if it were a pencil. and i tell you, it ain't easy!

anyway, hope u like it.

Simply amazing work shimoda!

Those eyes go right through me!
I adore the way the black tattoos really stand out. A great idea to use pen for that. :) Extremely well done and adds such a beautiful yet different touch to this picture, :)
The shading and detail is so precise. Spellbinging work.

Do you use a grid at all?

Wow, that looks like it would have been really difficult. I really like the eyes. Good job.

Won’t you take me
When you’re not here.
It’s been raining here.
And I just want you
To be near."

:omfg: That's entirely in pen?! If I didn't read the description, I'd be damned fooled! :XD: The shading where it looks like pencil--well... it so looks like pencil! :XD: :clap: I love the tattoos around her eyes--if I wasn't such a wuss about tattooes, I'd get them around the eyes! :XD: Everything's too amazing.. I must fave and gawk at this more, :XD: :D
