    As a Newbie to the internet, I am always searching online for stuff that can help me. Thank you for your help.

    Yup, couldn’t agree more. And I’d like to add that you’ve got a great colour scheme on your site, I suffer with colour blindness and many webmasters don’t give us a second thought!

    the thing they never really mention when you see galleries like this is the sheer size that the boards they draw on have to be to achieve this affect. if you look closely almost all of the intense rendering and shading is done with stippling. Now when its small, or viewed from far away this looks smooth, but the level of detail and accuracy of shading leads me to believe these pictures are HUGE and not quite as impressive as one might think. Drawing big is MUCH easier than drawing small, its a fact.

      it doesn’t matter ugh. I bet even on a massive scale, you couldn’t even draw anything half as impressive, much less know how to render it. give credit where credit is due, and take the stick out of your you know what.

      stop saying things are facts that clearly are opinions.

      You are wrong and you are a dick. That must suck for you.

      I’ve been reading his blog and loved his artwork for a while now. Decide for yourself if this is so HUGE like you said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUJ04VNiJDo&feature=player_embedded

      It’s a live drawing video by him (up on his blog). Maybe you should do some research before you speak next time.

    Those images are amazing. Can’t believe it’s done with a ball point pen.
