I first started to sketch out the drawing in pencil but I was having trouble getting my scale right so I decided to take a short cut as I was limited to time today.
As there was a limited amount of time to make my picture I decided to take the digital image and edit it in a corel photo editing program. First I reduced the image to greyscale, I then increased the contrast to max and increased the brightness so the image became a faded image in grey and white. I now printed off the image on my desktop printed in as light a shade as possible in greyscale not colour to save as much as possible on the printing ink.
Next I placed the print onto my drawing paper and traced over the print with a 2B pencil. An image shadow will be left on the drawing paper underneath which allowed me to copy the shadow and let me get on with colouring in the picture.
