more angsty

~fave on DArtTorchwood is a little too gorey for me. I'm such a wimp.

So I've been wanting to do a sitting angsty pose of the Doctor for a while. I've read a couple fanfics where the authors have the Doctor looking through Rose's old things after season 2. It fits so perfectly into canon, of course that's what happened, right?
I had to run to the postoffice before they closed, so I scanned what I'd done before I left and thought I'd show you a little of my work process. (I'm copying you, Christy!!) I forgot to scan when I started the bare bones of the sketch, but... basically, it was just a rough boxy shape of the Doctor's body.
I used these images for reference

It took about an hour, give or take for the rough sketch. This is about as far as I tie stuff down before going into graphite.

then the graphite part was pretty easy, taking about 30-40 min probably. I do the graphite right on top of the red pencil, and then I remove it in photoshop by removing the red channel. notice how he lost his glasses? :P


I'd like to color it, but (a) I'm tired and (b) I'm not sure I can get the darkness of lighting I want with markers without making a mess of it. (translation: Rose's room is bright obnoxious pink, so the lighting would have to be dark enough for the scene to read) So who knows.
