Close Up of Toby and Langoustine - unfinished

Although the first drawing was fun, I was not able to capture the expression because of the absorbent paper and small size, neither of which afford much in the way of fine detail.  This is a much larger piece of paper so the drawing will take longer but I am hoping to represent the micro-expressions that are present in the original.

Graffiti Truck - still way unfinished



The background will make a big difference.

Graffiti Truck - way unfinished



This already represents over 12 hours of work (or a season and a half of Netflixed Battlestar Galactica). Not sure why it's so time intensive! It's on a 14x10 piece of paper so it's bigger than usual and I've never tackled graffiti before.

It's for Christopher.
