This is excellent RJS. Man, I wish I had the talent to shadow folds like that. It makes me almost want to just jump in there and sink like I'm floating on a cloud. I'll bet this technique is very similar to techniques to shadow clouds as well, right? How much of the drawing is actually penciled in? It looks like you only have about 4 or 5 actual lines, and the rest is just shading.

Yep, only about 5 lines, then the rest was loose washes gradually getting darker until the basic shape was achieved. when i was happy with it, i started adding the dark folds.
As for clouds, I haven't quite mastered that one yet, though it's not for the want of trying!!
Glad you like it Eric, I am very pleased with the result, though i did look at it afterwards and wonder how i did it so well.

Venus, I just noticed you are from Novi, MI. I am originally from Grand Ledge, MI. Do you know where that is? Now, the family is mostly centered around Charlotte, MI. I've been to Novi a few times as a youngster, mostly with Boy Scouts and such.

That is just WOW! I'm so in awe of people who can take what appears to be so ordinary and turn it into something that absolutely commands attention.

Beautifully done.
