Description
India Ink, with a tongue-depressor that's been cut off at an angle. Essentially it's an ink-and-stick experiment. It was challenging getting the values to show up. The picture I took with my cellphone came out too dim and it had to be brightened on Ps. I suppose that robbed some of the original values that are there. Lots of dry-brush effect.

For a reason unknown, the wood sucked up the ink really quick and it dried too quickly. I think I'll have to work faster next time.

More attention to making the body look like it's chunky and made of matter, not just a bunch of lines. At least, that's what I'm going for!
