Winter is almost over and spring time work load kicked in. The real life pencil picture asignment turned out to be another overtly detailed one, the client is as picky as ever, (it is the same one, who ordered those pencil pics with the pstcard images on this handmade paper, that was dangerous to rip, if too much pressure was dealt upon the surface...), who hardly could make up their mind, what they wanted to order.
The deadline is this years Easter, but the images are so detailed, that I have to draw leaf after leaf after leaf afte leaf (there are many bushes and trees on the source photos, I have to work with...) and then I have to draw copy a house and that is really delicate, for it has complext features.
Long story short, this asignment caused Eternal to go nearly crazy, as the posted doodle above shows in a figuratively way...
And thank you very much for your comments and answer to my Q&A on my recent journal. I really appreciate them all and it gives me a better impression of what kind of artist I am now at the moment.

I'm about to shove some Pico de Gallo made from Pepper X and Carolina Reapers right up this client's ass because the order just sounds egregious. Especially with such delicate material as mentioned. I can forgive everything else because this can be seen as a way to push you beyond what you think you can draw. But doing so on such delicate paper makes me quite angry for you. Though I know you don't want me to be angry for you, so I'll just express anger calmly. -v-
Ah fair enough, your defense works full, and I accept and forgive everything!
I know how you feel, though to be fair...with what we have going on, I'm a smidge scared of writing 110 pages. Though I am still very conscious that its my choice, and I want this for myself. I want to break the limit that once held me back, I don't care to prove that to anyone but myself. It feels...like a challenge from myself...to myself...that beckons and calls. And I await it with great anticipation and intense internal vigor. I can feel my entire self resonating - vibrating even - with energy when I look at that challenge. I can't wait to get to work, and I can't wait to get more details from you! Nothing is wrong with a little fear, it helps balance out and keep clarity of mind, to keep me in check so that I don't get overconfident!

I'm sorry you're having to go through this all over again with the client taking so long to make up their mind and the extreme complexity, though at least your working on normal paper this time. I hope that you're getting a good payment for this and that you manage to make it through the assignment with at least some of your sanity intact.
I am the last one, who would ruin his sanity over art. But nontheless, the picture itself is detailed af... I need to draw leaf after leaf, have to count small trees in the background, for not to draw too many or too little of them...
I can organize my time, but it is simply a frustrating project. Because I am feeling like a "scanner"

I can relate to you under difficulties.
Art has and under the current knowledge will always be a mere hobby to me - i had proven a level of skill so far, although, and that may be only assumeable for others, find myself hindered by a lacking attention span. My works are always some of rather specific circumstances and brief timespans.
Hence why i can only look up what and with which quality and dedication you draw.

Some comedy relief to brighten up the mood^^;
Yes, the eraser was used very often.^^;;;;
You have got a sharp eye^^. Inded it is a smaller version of the original. When I am finished, I will post the result, just without the house, because it is a private property, that I do not want to post, without the owners consent.
The picture itself looks a little bit similar to the former ones, but with less postcard details, except for the central picture of the collage.
