Wishy-washy

What, a whole three days without any artwork?

Fiddling around a bit with water-soluble graphite pencils. Not really happy with the result, actually. May have to play around with this combination of media some more. I’ve been doing a lot of intense cross-hatching recently, and liking it, but that’s not stylistically appropriate for the particular project that this character is for.

I might be better off just doing the line art on paper, then applying pseudo-washes in Photoshop (or Painter).

What sort of bird is it?

A raven, I think, or some kind of crow. It’s actually a psychic projection.

Groovy. I like grackles. :D :D :D

And I can actually tell the difference between grackles, ravens, and crows these days (ever since growing my grackle obsession). It's good to be abnormal.
