    Not bad for a bout five minutes... wonderful expressive. Dunno if it's your style or not, but some pen and ink over that in the right places and you're laughing!

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    What medium did you use watercolour?

    Great tones there, very effective...

    Thanks guys.:)

    I used gouache paints on 300mg paper. Sometimes ill use standard water colours as well as gouache (gouache paints are rudy expensive! Im trying to save money.), but the gouache has that extra zing to it, especially in the white.
