[Art] Sketch - Nephrurus wheeleri.

[moonvoice]

A sketch from my sketchbook that I did today with uncontrollably shaking hands.
Nonetheless I'm quite happy with it.
Fineliner, graphite and watercolour on cartridge paper.
The JPG is a fair bit larger than the original.
Also known as the Australian knob tailed gecko.

very nice!

My first reaction was that this was a seriously grumpy individual. But on a second look, such a lovely smile, with a hint of 'no, I'm not laughing *at* you' slyness.

Oh wow! This looks really good.

You deserve to be happy with this - you got that gecko side-eye "you gotta be kidding me" look down perfectly.

Lovely gecko. I like the eyes and its expression.

wonderfully lizardy texture!

I have missed your art and it is nice to see something again. I love the detail.

[raze]

Ooh, I do love this!

I particularly like the eye, and the way you've captured the skin texture at the back of the head. Reptile eyes are particularly fascinating to me, and you've really managed to capture it. :)

Very expressive, I like it!

Love the play of colors and how they work with the texture from the pen lines.

[faolchu_rua]

I love the coloration here, all the pebbly bits. :D

[kehleyr]

Oh nice one indeed!

[ariestess]

Oh he looks impishly grouchy. Or is that grouchily impish? Either way, I like him!

I would not expect shaky hands from this. You might not be happy with means, but it looks like you're still getting somewhere interesting.
