Update on new horse drawing

I've done some more work on my new horse drawing. I've been adding layer after layer of different foundation colours, which is quite time-consuming. Coloured pencil portraits thus take considerably longer than pastel portraits. It's fun though!

Boxer portrait finished

I guess I haven't updated my blog in a few days... I basically pulled a muscle in my right shoulder which is rather painful so drawing/sitting at my pc has been a bit of a struggle. Oh well, getting there... I have managed to finish Gina's portrait though. The scan's a bit lighter than the original...the background is really a creamy/beige colour. Size is A4, pastels.
