Wow, I just have to ask though, did you use a computer at all for this piece, I cant work it out.
Hope that doesn't offend you if you didn't haha.

haha, nope, you're right! the gears were a last minute texture i threw in , but i DID use ink custom brushes over them, so it still sorta counts right? >___>

Hahah, it's still damn awesome. I was just wondering as I really liked the style, so wanted to see how you did it. My computer skills are still pretty bad, so I think I'l have to stick to hand drawings for now. =]
Thanks for taking the time to answer though

calligraphy inks, tiny brushes, and many many hours of hard work the rest is magic! (or experience, but that doesn't sound as fun)

This is beautiful. Absolutely stunning and intimately moving. We all feel this way when we create, this is the ultimate in expression: to have our creations spring from the paper and be real.
