Escaping from Reality (Inked Art)

I had a hard time finding the right elements to add to this drawing. 8.15 h of inking. The most difficult part was finding the right elements to add, where to put them, finding the right density of stars in order to maintain a nice contrast, and making the windows of the building without any mistakes ^^.

I also used a new technique, and relined the most important lines with indian ink (more work and more risks, but I love making it harder every time ^^)

Tools: technical paper CANSON A3, indian ink, 0.05 liner STAEDTLER, Red Drawink Ink MAJUSCULE

J'ai eu du mal à déterminer quels éléments mettre dans le dessin et ou les placer. 8h15 d'encrage en tout. Le plus difficile a été de trouver la bonne densité d'étoiles permettant de faire ressortir l'arbre et les bâtiments, et d'encrer les bâtiments sans noircir une fenêtre qui ne devait pas l’être ^^. Mais ouf pas d'erreurs.

Pour rendre la tache encore plus difficile, j'ai décidé sur ce dessin de refaire la majorité des contours à l'encre de chine avec une plume neuve plus fine. Plus de risque et de boulot, mais bon ... J'aime compliquer le boulot à chaque fois ^^.

Outils: Papier technique CANSON A3, encre de Chine, liner STAEDTLER 0.05, Encre à Dessiner Rouge vif MAJUSCULE
