Tiger head sketch that I want to turn into a coloured pencil piece. Just need to figure out what paper to use before I start. Could use black, but it sometimes feels like cheating because the values are already there :p
The values might be there, but black paper presents its own challenges as yellows/oranges look green if not careful ... I find working in cps on black support isn't easy ...
Have you tried using cps on drafting film - you can alter the look by using different colour backing sheets behind the film?
My poor neglected blog! I just keep forgeting and running out of time in the day to post anything. I will try to post at least a few times a week *crossign fingers*

i've tried drafting film, and do like how you can change the backing sheet, but found it a little bit too smooth for me :)
