    Thank you, all.
    I’m really quite pleased with this one myself. Currently working on another cat, this time with much longer fur – an entirely different challenge.

    Let me see, how long have you got! ;)
    It took me probably a couple of years to learn enough pencil control to work like this, but there are some essential techniques that woud be helpful. Perhaps I’ll create some how-to posts about those soon.

    i cant pull up the words…
    all that i can say for this one is that.. if you had made this like some 3000 years ago drawn this for some Egyptian Pharoah, rest assured you would have ended up marrying his daughter!!
