Hey Happy New Year guys and I'm glad to see you back!
CBinnsIllustration: I'm really glad you are liking these and I have def been just trying to keep busy and enjoy the artistic journey in times of the year that are not really the best for me, but working on these made it a lot better for sure. Thanks for the input on the Snowmen piece and that is cool what you say about the first drawing and how the smaller one is in like a Snow storm.Def looking forward to you joinging in and seeing what you do man. I hope the end of the year and the beginning here has been good for you.
Darktiste:Thanks so much on that input and it reminds me that there are different looks to be had. I typically go with a more painterly style in my work, laying up loose to some what tighter sketches and then I paint over that. This time around I put a lot of work into the sketch aspect of this pretty much making that a finished product although I could have pushed it even further going more into a an inking process. Based on what you said here I think I will take a different approach and keep the line work as part of the finished artwork giving it more a 90's comic style art. If I have time I'll see if I can paint it out as well, as I've already created my base for that approach. I appreciate the good words and yes, I used to work on toned paper often with white colored pencil as highlights, it is a really great way to build a fun and impressive sketch book.
Here's two images:
1. with the Monochromatic look that @Darktiste suggested
2. with the black lines
