This is a pencil drawing? It’s amazing, your attention to detail and precision is great.

Hi. Thank you. I used a scale ruler to draw from the origional, but to a larger scale. It took me a year and a half to complete. Thats why I like pencil drawing because i can show all the little details that wont be there when using paint.

This is such good work, and the patience required! Like it a lot.

Hi Kalb. Thanks. Drawing is really relaxing for me.I did get bored of it at some points, so i would leave it alone for months on end and then start on it again. Im glad its over with now, i have started on another drawing of Londons skyline, but its nowere near completed!
