This one took me longer than I anticipated... haven't been doing enough sketching lately. Most of a day (spread out over a number of days) I'd guess.
Cheers!

I think that the art is not a question of speed, it is results which counts, finally it is the proverb of people slow as me, lol

Yup its a 'real life pencil' and I like to keep it with a 'weapons grade point' - sharpened with a blade and maintained with sandpaper. Not sure its a secret or anything, but it is how I like to work on tight drawings

I'm really not sure if you are pulling my leg now ... Which is dangerous, because I have a prosthetic one and it might come off ...

I'm actually a bit jealous of you having unread Terry Pratchetts there to read. I've read all his Discworld books... and want more!
Soul Music is one of my favourites too, coz it features Susan. Thanks for taking the time to comment... and enjoy those books!

You ever consider doing a Timelapse of your graphite work? I would love to sit over your shoulder and watch your process. (Did that sound creepy? Probably oh well. I am too lazy to use my backspace button.)

Loopydave In reply to MillionPM [2016-06-23 08:51:06 +0000 UTC]

I may try that some day ( the timelapse thing, not the sit over my own shoulder thing ), though I do take occasional progress photos with my phone camera.

I dare say it reflects in your work. Like Terry you are a master at your craft, but no matter how serious the
work may be, you never fail to let the humor be an important part of it
