Juicy Tentacle Meat from Nov 5, 2014

 

"Nausea"
Prismacolor pencil on black A3 paper,
297 x 420 mm, (11.7 x 16.5 in)


The tentacles are not the usual pink and purple colours I normally do. I went for a paler colour, I was going for sickness, not the healthiest of tentacles.
The crab claws coming to induce vomiting, to harvest the juicy tentacle meat.

The only thing I don't like with this drawing is the eyelashes. Eyelashes are not easy and are something I save for last as the black pencil is very dominant and nothing will go over it. It's also psychological where caring too much and trying too hard creates these small mistakes, I'm failing to get this curve in the lashes instead I am getting clumpy lashes. It's weird but putting white in the lashes, a bit of white to highlight the black can fix this, it helps to put the curve back in, and also white is great when it's too dark to see the lashes. LASHES.
