Inktober Day 14: Fierce

Ink, 8″ x 8″
Inktober Day 14’s prompt is “fierce”. The first thing that came to my mind when I read the prompt was The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
Looking back at this film is a trip because that’s the same dude that played Elrond, and Agent Smith, and Red Skull! And there’s Guy Pearce. So crazy. And yes, that is a dress made of flip flops, and flip flop earrings. Guy Pearce’s wig looks like Wendy Lou Who’s hair. The costumes and makeup in this film are fabulous.
For this drawing I was working my new parallel pens again. One of the things I tried to do with this one was strategic smudging with my finger to create some shading and tone. It was working out fairly well at first but eventually I wrecked the thing. Hey, it happens sometimes. The picture above is an unfinished “in progress” shot right before things got too messy.
