Description Erwin Smith: "If we only focus on making the best moves, We will never get the better of our opponents. When necessary, we must be willing to take the big risks, and be prepared to lose everything."

Took longer to complete than expected but then again I was busy last week aha. Anywho hope you guys like this! Done with colored pencil as usual.

Also, the background looks funky 'cause I was trying to do an abstract / blurr effect to emphasize his speed. And it didn't pan out XD oh well.

I'm just super curious on how you achieve that look, do you use a certain paper or coloring material? Technique?

I use regular sketchbook paper that's a little thick 'cause I color way too hard when i'm finishing a drawing (i've torn thinner paper in the past; HNG my soul ripped as well lol).
As for the technique, as i'm starting, I pretty much color lightly with 4-6 shades of a single color at a time (progressing from dark to light) then using a white colored pencil on the lightest parts to give it more of sheen? Aha I suck at explaining i'm sorry x_X;;
I swear my scanner eats color so I have to saturate the colors a bit after scanning; ughh I swear some of my pictures look better in person -glares at scanner-

I'm going to try your technique in the future, but I take my pictures with my iPhone....so I know the feel of it looking better in person.
Though your art always looks amazing anyway. <3 <3
