So many details must be bad for your health! I am already going halfway insane just by looking at it, I can only image what you had to go through while making it.
It's simply awesome!!!

There are a lot of great details in here. Unfortunately they blur and blend together because there's not enough contrast. If you were to go in and add sone strategic highlights in the dark spots and dark tones in the white areas, you'd have a piece with more impact. The unbroken white outline is an issue as well. It makes it really easy for my eye to skim your work by following the obvious outline and miss all the great detail. Extend something out into the white. Push it to the edge of the page. Break up the negative space, you'll find yourself creating greater interest and impact

woah, this is really ou there. the level of detail you have put into this piece has reached a new extreme, and is in a class of it's own. you are a truely gifted artist, and you should be giving your self a pat on the back.

i'd also like to praise your work, i adore it... i love the detail that comes through in your sketches but i have one question..

I'm curious as to how you work through these as they are intensely detailed..

do you work top to bottom, side to side, or you just go with the flow and add details randomly..

actually make that two questions..

do you have an idea in your head to begin with or does it all just come together in the end?

maybe you can post a process or something as i'm extremely curious

cheers!

Petra- In reply to SomethingAndNothing [2005-05-24 10:51:28 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a Lot! wow im flattered!

well i never thought about where i started but i just found out i start from the middle of the page and

spread out. I never have an idea what i'm about to draw. it usually starts with some doodle on a

school notebook or an available piece of paper, i give it a theme later on as i work on it.

And I'll post a process for the next one i do to feed your curiosity .
