Description (no, it's not spirited away wallpaper pack like I said before)

Hello!

Since there are people ask me how I do this or that in my painting. I decided to create a mini guide of the technique I use.

Hope it helpful to you all!
and feel free to share your opinion.

Hello!
I was just wondering, what kind of watercolor (what brand) do you use? Thank you!!

ivoryblood In reply to ??? [2009-11-30 03:12:01 +0000 UTC]

Can I ask?

I wonder... I see that you used 6B for the line, but if we want to color it with watercolor, the graphite will mix with the color... mm.. sorry for bad english ^^ I hope you understand..

So.. how do you color it?
