~You cannot spell SLAUGHTER without laughter~

I wanted to have as many different styles of art represented as possible, so the first criterion was the medium you used. I have hard time drawing with colored pencils (still learning and not getting it yet)and I was taken how wonderfully you've managed it and created the nice warm- cold opposition and the texture, which gives it in a way pastel work look. At the same time the opposition brings nicely out the mood of the picture too, which itself is a bit contrary: serious, thoughtful, slightly arrogant even (brought me to think that it's made after some promo photograph?). The third reason was that I wanted the features to have meant something to their creators too, that they have some personal relationship, some reason, why they made the piece.
I hope it didn't come too long answer now .

That was a very thorough explaination. Thank you very much for the compliment, and the honor to be featured.

It was incredibly easy. The key is to use prismacolor pencils, and draw in small circles, using different pressure for tones.

My problem, when it comes to coloured penciles, is that I use green as one of the first colors on the picture. I don't know, why I keep doing it, but that has ruined several potential drawings. I rather paint in PC thanks to this.

something i should have told you along time ago... is that when you want to use prismacolor pencils on colored paper (canson) and you really want to get a saturated color, especially on a dark paper, use white as a primer. If you use the white pencil lightly first (small circular strokes, not grinded into paper) and then a color over that, the result in a very richer color than if you just started using green pencil on a darker paper.

And now you know! lol

I must be the only fool who actually didn't know it , that explains so much about why I can't get bright colours on dark papers
