I just finished my newest drawing, a portrait of my friend in anime style!

This was definitely different! I usually draw animals, mythical beasts and people in historical clothing. It was a fun challenge! I drew this by hand with my manga pens and it was digitally coloured. The drawing looks better in person, the computer doesn’t capture the richness of the colours… I used 3 photos for reference:

Wow, awesome! It’s fascinating to see the photos and the the finished product!!
