Dean drawing

[amberdreams]

I was feeling sad today - wrapping a much diminished pile of presents just emphasised all the people who are missing and it just didn't feel right. So I thought I'd try some drawing instead. (Of course, I should have been writing instead but - yeah).
I wanted to try something more controlled and using zones instead of the more organic shading I'd normally do, so I started with pencil outlines then once I was happy with the proportions, I inked it. Just a fine Stabilo felt tip pen.

Here are some of the stages.


Starting to shade it


I'm not sure what to do with it next. I might shade some more then put the photo into PS and try some colouring.

It's certanily turned out better than a drawing I tried a couple of days ago - that was just so awful and I got so cross! LOL

Anyhow, I feel better now.

Whoa, that's really cool! Seeing all your process pics is always so intriguing. I hope you're feeling cheerier now than when you first posted this, love. <333333

More worried than sad right now - but Dean always makes me feel better.
