I posted this in my main gallery for a number of reasons. The pencil work thus far is a good example of how rigorously I get into my work. The outer edge has been deleted to give it a clean border, and show just how messy my pencil renders can become. ;)

I ususally end up with the side of my right hand COVERED in graphite. I've already started inking it more then it shows here, and erased a lot of the old pencils. Didn't like teh effect of it. So I'm going to keep what I have, and see about a way to transferr it so I can color it.

This is one of the most advanced pieces I had this far done. Here's to hoping I don't loos steam. See my journal for more on the whole project process.
