Cathedral - Blog Posts
Details from a cathedral in Dublin.
(i apologize for any formatting issues, im on mobile)
this took a few weeks of drawing on and off to finally finish, since the paper is i believe about 3 x 2 feet
i used a mechanical pencil for the sketch, which might have been the most time consuming part. in the sketch i messed up the perspective and proportion while trying to make it more dynamic, which i had to fix when i did the lineart (with tombow ink pens).
i did the shading in only a couple hours using greyscale alcohol markers. i didn't use the reference image for the shadows, because i wanted to be particular about the lighting
the final piece is still a slightly different angle than the original photo (of the Canterbury Cathedral, found on Britannica), and while it was on purpose, i still need more practice with the execution
