So it was a fun little exercise. I ended up chucking more black in there than I originally planned to but sometimes I do get carried away, but I enjoyed it. Pen and ink, coloured pencil, and acrylic... I tweak the image a bit after scanning to compensate for winsor & newton ink being so shit and transparent and as a result some of the softness of the other mediums is lost. No big deal.
