This is what happens when you don't plan. Your drawing can turn into a too busy textural nightmare. I still might be able to pull this out. We shall see.
are you inking on super thin vellum? a trick i learned from a local artist is to put light washes on the back of the velum to get a little value. might be able to unify your bg and have this character pop still!
hahahaha holy shit! i love that you added the gun element. guns always make a situation 10 times as intense.
i'm going to be honest and say that i think it was a mistake putting the boat directly behind the guy, it makes that area really busy and difficult to read. but you probably already know this, plus it seems you're just practicing with the brush pen - so i guess it doesn't matter :P
Holy Shit! Its Awesome! Cool perspective.. I like that it really involves the viewer into the compostion with the gun in the fore front. Definitley keep posting more of these ink drawings!
damn, that looks sweet!
