Description *full throated maniacal laughter* Finally! Finally -DONE- !!!! Between puttering around, working on this months ago, stopping, then working on it again, the gradual process, while not narrowed down to an hour figure took ages. I worked eensie weensie. A standard size of sketchpad paper. I was pretty determined to focus on my background work (now I know why I don't usually) and I have to admit it's very rewarding to see now that it's done. I gotta thank the guys for convincing me to finish this rendering of Poe McLish I started oh-so-many months earlier. The poor thing, she was sitting, but had no bench, background or even completed clothing. Sadder still I don't know WHY I was displeased enough I didn't finish her sooner. Perhaps I am too fickle...

Done entirely with various fine point pens, BIC mechanical pencil (as always) and on Canson acid free sketchpad paper.

Your work is PHENOMINAL. What you can do with just pens and value is astounding, I aspire to be as good as you one day. Never quit.

I remember when you began drawing that bench. The rest of us were just eating and talking while you were diligently working in your sketch pad. That "I *heart* Tim" thing was really cool!

holy crap- amazing, very very very...good, lol, lack of better words. chaos! chaos! everywhere, i love it! the effect with all the paper everywhere is amazing...because...*thinking hard* it reeks of realisum people fail to see, but at the same time is in a surreal light- woot woot!

i have a few beefs on perspective (poster on the wall, bus on the bus stop sign) but...the amazingness makes up for it

yeah, I was trying to make the brick un-even, settled in places and a bit askew but it ended up throwing my depth to all hell. I suppose its a lesson learned. The bus-stop sign however was pure laziness. I threw it in to get rid of negative space in the corner, plus it was borrrrring so I rushed it.

Fuckin' hell! O_O The amount of detail there is absolutely -sic-! Even moreso due to the fact that was done with pencil and pens only. I love the patchwork pants(arethey?), most notably that there's a Star Wars patch in 'em. Hrhr, a tribute of sorts? The amount of detail you put into even the bench, ground, and refuse surrounding the bench is just disgustingly amazing... x_x Faving this work is a no-brainer. I'm glad your friends convinced you to finish and post it. :3 And hey, you finish when you finish. *shrug*

o.O I'm with snap on that comment... there's no way I would have such patience - or determination - to complete a work as nice as this.
