Description
I can't help it, I love Glee. Kurt was my favourite character from the very start, and I love everything the Warblers do. Or should I say, Blaine & The Pips?
Darren Criss and Chris Colfer are both great singers, and good actors.I have a bit of a thing for uniform jackets, so when I ran into this picture (which appeared on the cover of Entertainment Weekly in January 2011), I couldn't resist drawing it. The photo is very clean, it has very little in terms of shadows. This was very tricky to draw, I might have to work on this piece a little more at some point.
Even before I started I knew 9B graphite pencil wasn't going to look black enough for me, so I found a special type of crayon/pencil/thing. I don't like the combination of graphite with black coloured pencil, but this one is not quite graphite, not quite coloured pencil. I haven't a clue as to what it really is, the box only gives it a number! I am determined to find out though. Maybe something like Siberian crayon?
OK, enough talk.

I must say the ties are my favourite part, they look very silky and 3D! You've got some very nice blacks there as well.
Perhaps you've found one of those oil-based charcoal pencils there? I've been using the ones that Cretacolor makes and they also feel like a cross between a graphite and a colour pencil. They're quite soft and easy to use, just like graphite, but the result is matte.

I love drawing ties, I don't think there's anything I enjoy drawing more than ties 
I've been trying to find out what it is I'm using. It's from Koh-i-noor Hardtmuth, but all I can find (even on their website) is "artists' lead black". It's definitely much heavier than charcoal, but just as dark. I will ask next time I'm in the store! It has no wood around it, so it's a bit messy. Might have to buy a holder.

Ja, mooi! Wat is je zwart zwart zeg! Hoeveel cm van dat staafje zit daar in?
Mijn Matts zijn nog niet klaar. Ik kom tezijner tijd wel weer eens langs, als er geen leeftijdsgrens is, tenminste! LOL

Ik heb een doosje gemengde staafjes gekocht, en die ene was goed
Lijkt me leuk binnenkort weer eens samen aan de slag te gaan. En wat betreft die leeftijdsgrens, het is geen Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire hier. Mijn cameraman, bv, is 61 haha. Mijn moeder is gewoon nieuwsgierig, en wordt bovendien ouder waardoor ze meer bezig is met leeftijd. (laat haar dit niet lezen!)
