Inktober 2019, Day 29: Injured

The prompt was "Injured."

Materials

  • Pigma Micron 005 and 02 pens 
  • Faber-Castell M, S, and F black pens
  • HB hardness drawing pencil
  • White polymer erasers of various shapes and sizes
  • Cold-pressed watercolor paper cut to 3.75x5.5" 

Step 1:  Sketch with a pencil

Sketch the general shapes of the body and head,  and the lie of the snow.  Add the scarf, arms, buttons, and facial features.  Add texture and shadows.

Step 2:  Draw with pens

Using the 005, outline everything.  I may have used the 02 to make some of the darker outlines and color in the darker spots.  I used the 005 for the shading.

Step 3:  Carefully erase the pencil marks


Results

I want to add a watercolor wash to add to the drama of the moment -- icy background and some bright colors for the tearful eye, scarf, and nose.
