Be All My Sins Remember'd.


********

The title comes from III.i of Hamlet.

Lord Edward Milton and his boy, Christopher.

I really like drawing these two; I cannot understand why.
My warm grey markers are essentially dead, so I changed
the colour of Milton's outfit (to cool greys) and did the
background in Photoshop.

This was really fun to do; I'd like to draw people with longer
limbs and make them more proportioned. It's also one of
the smallest drawings I've done, so colouring it was a bitch.

First drawing where I've used a SEPIA fine liner. I feel
rather mixed about the results, but a change is nice.

The pose was loosely based upon one I found in a "how-to
draw manga" book.

I've long since forgotten where I got the Victorian wallpaper
textures; they were just saved in my Photoshop patterns.

gawd I love yer striped pants :D its awesome that you dont do a straight line down, but you do wavy with the ruffles in the pants and although thats a small detail, it makes a huge impact and makes the image seem even more special.

I miss you on AIM, Its good to see that you're still around when you post your work :)
