11 x 17, WIP.

Started life many years ago as a comic page, ended up as a pin-up that I add lines to every few week or months.

I added some more lines to it late last night during a terrible, terrible movie (Argento's Dracula, aka Dracula 3D -- Dumb, Dull and Dreadful). I was taking a break from drawing but the movie was so bad I got bored and needed something to do. This was within reach and I don't mind working in a state of semi-concentration if it's something that isn't work or a commission.

I tend to think of this sort of thing as therapy drawing. Just making lines, no pressure, no anxiety. I wish I could work like this normally, less uptight. Hopefully one day. But not if it involves ever watching Argento's Dracula again. Oy gevalt!

When I finish it up I'll probably try to sell it, first to upper-level backers here, then on ebay if there's no takers. I'm going to price it more along the lines of what eBay stuff sold for, but I haven't sold an oversized B&W Milk & Cheese piece in many years, and I've never put one up on eBay that I can recall, so, I'm not sold on what it might sell for.

It still needs more lines laid down, and then some white ink work to clean things and shape textures. Hopefully days or weeks rather than months or years to get it finished.

Back to "work" work, making more lines on paper.
