Description Yaaay my tablet is working again! After messing around with my drivers, I somehow managed to get it to work (with pen pressure too!)

Over the weekend, I watched Taxi Driver with Robert De Niro and really liked some of the messages behind it. The idea of cleansing the city of all the filth is a very powerful theme.

I usually listen to a wide variety of music when I draw, but there were two songs I listened to while drawing this more than any others. The first is Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel. The other was Rain from the Cowboy Bebop Soundtrack. Both seemed very fitting.

Thank you! I always have a tough time trying to get the highlights and shadows to look right.

Thanks! I think making textures for 3D objects has got me thinking differently on how I detail materials.
