Artist's Comments

My first time inking a piece to completetion. Also my first time stippling. I do not recommend doing this on a time restraint. AT ALL. :dead:

Was drawn for a local contest about the War of 1812 but was disqualified for historical inaccuracy on his clothing and the pine trees. Lawlz. :laughing: Too much artistic license? You decide.

Original pencil drawing here. >>> [link] As usual, I liked the pencils better than the inked version. Sort of sad that I had to erase this once the inks were on.

I dunno, apparantly they were looking for a more swampy area. There's a particular area locally where a massacre took place and it was much swampier I guess. Locally, it's pretty flat but there's pine trees everywhere! :laughing: I think it was most for his clothing, though. I took waaay too much liberty with it. ^^; Lesson learned!

Good news is, I may I have a potential buyer already. The director told me he wasn't only interested, but he WANTED it. I was totally floored cause I've never framed anything, much less put it on display. :excited:
