Grim Reaper

Eric brought in a grim reaper he found online and I tweaked it up to flow with his arm. That and we threw in some red eyes for flavor. I tried to experiment with my black and grey shading on this one. Instead of jumping straight into a midtone, I worked out of pure black and tried to fade it by using both quick hand movements and concentrating on needle depth. Then I finished off the gradients with a light wash.

Here's a taller version.
