[QUOTE="Kip the Bold, post: 910002, member: 910"] Glad you liked the washes. I was flipping through some old planescape books looking at some of the DiTerlizzi pics, and they inspired me to try some washes. I'm pretty happy with they way they are coming along, but I've got a way to go before I'm as good as I want to be with them. It takes me maybe 1/2 an hour to do a single character sketch with a really quick basic wash, all together. But to do a more detailed and complicated pic with washes can take considerably longer, especialy if there is a background involved. And there is more chance of something going horribly wrong with a brush than a pen, though, and tougher to fix a mistake. I did that batch there just to practice that technique. I think they have a little more depth than just the line drawings, but those only take me about 10-15 minutes. For important work, I use bristol illustration board instead of typing paper; it doesnt wrinkle, but its not cheap. I am still doing commissions, too :) [/QUOTE]
