Really good detail in this. The perfect illustration of an action scene, it captures the movement, expression and fear perfectly in the stark black and white.

:-) John Ryan Byrd replies: "Thank you. It does beat my standing around character drawings. I should do more like this."

I love this ink work. I use ink for a lot of things and when i attempt a piece this detailed, the textures end up blending into eachother, and things end up getting lost, which apparently isn't a problem for you! Great work!

1 John Ryan Byrd replies: "Its just a matter of looking at the peice from a contrast standpoint. You want some areas to have more lines and be darker and some to POP out from the rest of the picture by adding more lights."
