Weekend for the Ages...7.8.16 ~ 7.10.16

Two big projects in progress this weekend...first off, the samurai piece...the spearman...





First figure done...





For the first time in a LONG time, I sat with another artist and learned some new techniques....specifically, charcoal pencil. This was my first attempt...

In progress shots...











The finished piece on 9 x 12 in Charcoal...Leonard.





And the photo I used for reference...



I'm pretty excited about how this turned out, all in all...I see a lot of room for improvement...but I'm encouraged. I need the right paper and some newer charcoal pencils, sticks...but I'll get there...
