Tonight's work, went back to some sketching. It was almost right until I did the head...it was too big..so had to fix it on the computer. Ah well, still was fun to get back to pencil sketching. It was also an attempt at some cross hatching. I don't know much how to do it, so any tips would be helpful .

I believe the secret to cross-hatching to be inconsistency in strokes... The rest is just basic shading... dark places get alot of strokes, light places get very few distant strokes.. :) Did you take a vacation?

Sort of. I actually was gone on some work travel...busy..then had to go to a wedding, etc .

lol thats pretty nice wish i could draw ike that :lol:
