Artist's Comments

Featuring the Marquis de Carabas, from Neverwhere, written by Neil Gaiman.

The Marquis has always been one of my favorite characters, and I really like the graphic-novel version of him. His skin is actually pitch-black, his lips bright red and his hair pure white. He looks fantastic.

This is just a quick practice sketch, trying to get the feel of my japanese brush pen. It's fun but fiddly to use, I prefer to write with it (in japanese).

You did a NICE job with him. I could never pick a favorite character of Neil's. Oh do you read his blog?

yeah, I prefer brush pens to do shading instead of straight line-arting... or maybe do line-widthing too...^^ maybe you might like it better that ways ^^
but the braid looks very good :D :nod: ^^
