A bunch of sketches
that are ready for inking

Looking forward to all of them!
Though it's personally satisfying to be illustration Australian magpie again.

Date: 2012-05-13 03:25 pm (UTC)The black band is more of an aesthetic choice. I like it as a way of singling out energy flow (i.e. sometimes it supports it, adding focus, and sometimes it flows away from it, indicating contrasts of energy), and to create a negative space to balance out the very fine details, which can make the illustration very busy, very quickly. :)
Hope that helps some!
