Gorgeous shading, excellent stylisation - and I love that background! Amazing work, really - there should be more fanart of Arthur like this.
I'm right-handed, so I start shading in the very upper left corner of the picture and finish at the opposite area. Stupid, little trick, but it keeps your paper (and hands!) clean - especially if you use pencils in the higher B.
Thanks, honey!
Can't wait to see more of your work!
As a naive American [eventual] tourist, if you could recommend any place in Europe for an American to travel, where would you recommend? (With the exception of Rome, Italy haha, cuz that's definitely happening lol) There's so many places to see, if you could only pick one along with Italy, what would you pick? Especially the historical places!
Bergen, Norway: One of the few places I would return to over and over again. Those wooden houses, the market, the sea, the fjords, the incredibly friendly people. If you can, arrive via ferry. You can only grasp the concept of Norway if you practice fjord-hopping!
Edinburgh, Scotland: The (not so!) grey city of Scotland. I arrived there on the first bright day of spring - and this city has a dry, but very appealing charm with its castle high above it, sitting there like a crown and the houses cascading down to the river. Pretty cool IMO. I still can't stand bagpipe music, but Edinburgh is worth a visit nonetheless. XD~
Barcelona, Spain: One of the most relaxing cities I've ever been. A lot of night life and take your time honoring the wonderfully crazy catalonian artists: Dalí, Miró, Gaudí. The world is colorful with them.
Vienna, Austria: Opulent and interesting. Hundreds of palaces, churches and stuff - I kinda fell in love with this city without realizing it. You'll get the world's best coffee here!
Cologne, Germany: Old as time, but still very much alive. If you want a crash course in european history, start here: Roman, Medieval, Modern times, all in a nutshell, free for all. And you can't miss the cathedral: It's the T.Rex of all gothic churches and impressive as fuck. If you want crazy times, then visit for carnival, the whole city is batshit insane then!
