Moorhen drawing progress


The moorhen picture is finally starting to gel after several days work on the foreground.The ice covered water has been layered with H and HB grade pencils 4 times so far and blended once,there is still a way to go yet to reach the final slightly darker tone i want.Now with the background more or less complete bar a few tweaks the picture is coming to life and looking less like a jigsaw every day.Another day spent layering on the foreground should see that complete and then ,at last,i can begin on the moorhen itself.

Hi Clive, great work on the background and the ice, if your anything like me I bet your itching to get started on the main subject, looking forward to seeing the finished drawing.
