In Progress

Athena, with white added.  I add white first because the black charcoal is hella smeary, so it is the last pass I make (and must be strategically executed to keep the heel of my hand from reducing it to a smudge).


The lighting is very complex with underlighting in the areas outside of the primary, harsh light.  I think it would make a fantastically complex study of tones in paint as I can't get the subtlety in these pencils that are required to do it all justice.
