Charcoal, chalk and graphite on toned paper. White highlights done with white gouache.

Ran out of sharpie when I was blacking out the bg so I had to use black acrylic paint, was quite difficult to get an even texture. Oh well.
Another natalia vodianova ref used.

It's good to see you working on something in a more traditional medium. Though I've been a bit sporadic with my watching lately so you might have been doing that for a while I suppose ^^;

Anyways I really like the sort of desaturated colouring in this one. I also think you've really managed to capture a great moment and with real impact. The image as a whole conveys a great sense of attitude.

Makes me think of a colored Frank Miller, like it would appear on film.
