This is awesome, looks straight out of a novel! It reminds me of the pen and ink drawings they did for DnD before they started doing oil paintings.

Thanks. It's funny that you mentioned the old DnD illustrations because I recently started feeling like my drawings remind me of those long off days.

If you haven't seen it already, I highly recommend checking out the documentary Eye of the Beholder,The Art of Dungeons and Dragons. It's on amazon prime I think, and of course a bay of pirates. They interview some legends that did the drawings for the old DnD books and dragon magazine, Jeff Easely, Larry Elmore, Keith Parkinson's son, it's incredibly inspiring. It's what inspired me to actually go out and try taking art seriously. While they discuss the old pen and ink drawings in depth, the documentary is moreso about oil paintings than anything else, but still a fun watch!

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
