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!
When it comes to technical drawing, there's no one better than Scott Robertson. I regularly use this book as a reference when eyeballing my perspective just won't cut it anymore. Need to figure out exactly how to rotate an object in 3D space? How to project a shape in perspective? Look no further.
