I used a watered down ink and basically painted lots of layers. Keep a hair dryer handy and dry the paper after each layer. The paper is off-white Arches Cover paper. It's very thick, like watercolor paper almost. Costs about $5 a sheet depending on where you get it.
On many of my drawings I would start something, wouldn't like it, flip it upside down and start something else right on top. I got some really nice textures and "happy accidents" that way.
The lines are all charcoal pencil.

I like this medium your using and, as kamineko said, the earth tones are super.

Looks painful. Once again, I dig those colors you use.
