That's a very interesting idea, you've got me thinking now. Some times draw animals using abstract patterns, might be fun to try

DragonPress [2010-06-22 18:37:50 +0000 UTC]

very nice
all thos stripes may have driven ME craz y if i'd tried that
btw, i noticed that alot of he darker areas reflect the light of the scanner when done....so occasionally i resort to using photoshop to darken it back up again..just by using the contrast/brightness slider.

PunkyMeadows In reply to DragonPress [2010-06-22 20:07:25 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, I to use photoshop to adjust contrast, and brightness after scanning, but couldn't adjust it any more with out making the whole thing look too dark. Do you know a way of isolating, and adjusting one small area at a time?

DragonPress In reply to PunkyMeadows [2010-06-23 06:18:29 +0000 UTC]

other than painstakingly using the lasso tool? No, unfortunatly, lol...wish there was a way to hit the non white areas only and....oh, hmm...i wonder if that wou - no, no that wouldn't work , never mind. *sigh* almost thought i was on to something. it IS veyr limiting, ill agree.

fantastic! I don't think I can add anything anyone else hasn't already said, so well done! it's good to see another person who prefers pencil.
oh, did you add the background digitally?

PunkyMeadows In reply to juliolsson [2010-06-02 19:55:12 +0000 UTC]

Thanks very much The background was done by hand, using a Mars Lumograph 8B pencil. Has a really dark tone that dosen,t reflect light, rather like charcoal only waxier
