I took a break from the portrait last night to mess around in my sketchbook - something I haven’t done in longer than I care to admit. I grabbed my Faber-Castel pitt pens and had just some fun. It was great. And I was an absolute nerd and drew a quicky portrait of my Everquest Drakkin Shadowknight toon. Heh. Though, I think I need to invest in some skin tone colours because she looks like a vampire and she really truly isn’t. The scan kinda makes her darker than she really is.

“The Drakkin are a human race, much like the Barbarians and Erudites but unlike them they have been touched by the blood of dragons.” (from here)

Overall, I’m pleased. Though, she’s harsher than I would have liked. But hey, it’s an attempt at illustration, so that’s kinda fun. I enjoyed myself which is probably the most important aspect about messing around in one’s sketchbook. Playtime!
