Project 365 ~ #106

#106 of 365 Daily Drawings

 

Inspiration: Season premier of Lost Girl last night

 

Result: Really fast fanart of Kenzi

 

Materials: Pentel 0.3 HB, Sakura Micron 02, OHTO graphic liner 10, Faber Catstell PITT artist Brush 199** in a *Moleskine Folio journal ( 21 cm 30 cm / 8 1/4" x 11 1/4")

 

Location: Home

 

Note: Trying out a selection of pens on new paper as I try to nip habits in the bud before they get entrenched.

 

~ I automatically run all these images through a photo filter after I've scanned them, as the project is meant to be just B/W images and not all my paper is consistent.

 

*Moleskine folio ~ this is a hardbound, heavy (160g) cream coloured paper. All Moleskine journals are now Made in China and I have to say that my experience today was A FIRST. I started drawing in pencil and then erased some lines to start again. I ERASED THE CREAM COLOUR off the page to reveal white underneath. WHAT THE F**K is THAT!?!

 

I can not in all honesty recommend this product to ANYone who actually cares about the paper quality they are drawing/writing on. To me this is just a sketchbook to play in, but I am seriously concerned about that this means for anyone who uses these books for serious work of any kind. Just ew! I will not repeat the mistake of purchasing this product again. The lesson here children is look to Europe or Japan for paper.

 

As for Lost Girl....OMG I am so happy the new season has been launched and I get to curl up on Sunday nights with my favourite, ass-kicking Fae and her human. I can't decide what I like the most about Kensi...her goth punk street fashion or the attitude with which she wears it. :D
