Here it is finished. One of the problems with using a drawing, to do a drawing, is that there is the tendency to just follow lines, that's what happened to the shadows. If I had been looking at it in real life, or from my own photo, I think I would have caught that the shadow lines were at two different angles (well, I did catch it but with ink, there is no erasing!). The only beef I have with the whole thing, is with the shadows.

It is a wonderful work in ink and the shadows don't bother me at all because there is so much to look at and they don't jump out as wrong. I like it.
I think it is a nice sketch, too. The shadows aren't terribly different and I didn't notice until you pointed it out. Nice studies you are doing.
Thanks you two, I am probably being overly critical (imagine that!).
BEAUTIFUL WORK!!!! I love how your pen and inks are getting so rich!!
