A little sketch that screamed through his mask for (at least some..) colours I couldn't refuse to give him :evillaugh:

Been inspired by several details, especially the peaked 18th century and that what came afterwards in the first years of the 19th century. Too complicated to write exactly down what drove me, besides it came out the way I wanted him to, and that is in itself a rarity for me.

Simple pencil sketch worked out with various ink pens. scans afterward, postwork and colours in photoshop. Stock background found on sxc.hu, filtered, addes details and changed the colours.

!!! Full view absolutely essential !!!

ps. I splitted the original picture into the coloured one and the black and white one to intensify the impact of the colours and the whole creepy athmosphere, like Flopmasterflex suggested, thanks for that tip!

You can find the b/w one here: [link]

hehe thanks for that tip, made it while I made some minor other changes, you were damn right about that effect boost. thanks again!
