I posted a post mortem on my “Dagger” drawing over in my DeviantArt journal. Check it out if you are so inclined.
"Dagger", originally uploaded by AndyBartlett. With apologies to Mark Brooks, “Dagger.” I’m not super-happy with this, but I’m calling it “done.” I’ve got a lot of work to do on proportions, etc.
