Ballpoint pen illustration commission for a friend, Great fun and a rewarding challenge. There were definitely some parts that were hard and frustrating, but the extra sweat, cursing and erasing ended up making the whole thing ten times more enjoyable (that seems to be how I work as an artist). One of my major goals for my art this year was getting better at illustrating scenes like this, so I'd like to keep this up. Got to work on my buildings and cityscapes since they're so anathema to what I normally draw, but this is a good start I think.

Slowly getting through my obligations, although still not as fast as I'd like. Piece done entirely in Staedtler and Pentel ballpoints on 9x12 heavyweight sketch paper. Art is mine, character belongs to respective client.
