Thanks! A lot to learn with this technique, but I'm having so much fun.

The pen is a simple plastic thing with interchangeable calligraphy nibs. My black is Windsor Newton India ink. The white is Rotring ink that's been sitting on the shelf so long it's started to sediment out, making it useless for technical pen. And the paper was 250 g/M2 grey. I loved the feel of it.

Thanks!

Thanks! I don't normally use colour but I think it worked well here.

Well I think YOU'RE fantastic.

Thanks!

Thank you!

Very nicely done! You've captured the movement well.

Pencil first, then ink if I have time. I'm getting better at going straight to ink for the detail work, but for gross body positioning I still need the pencil.

Two seats down from me was someone doing pictures twice as good as this one directly with a fountain pen. I am in awe.

Apologies -- done.

Thanks! After three years drawing from photos, I was surprised how much harder this was. I'm better at hands and feet and general anatomy than I used to be, but working at speed is something I'm hoping to get a lot more practice of. I'll definitely be back next week!

Now I can't unsee this.
