The Dark Tower

I made this as a birthday gift for the friend that introduced me to the Dark Tower series, though it ended up being more of a belated birthday gift, since it's two weeks late.

This is my first experience shading with ink, and I was surprised with how easy I found it. It is so forgiving of mistakes that it almost feels like cheating. One more fun addition to my artistic toolkit is paint pens, which I used for the background. My discovery of them was yet another happy accident, because I only decided to "paint" the background because I got food on it.

EDIT: I prettied it up in GIMP (fixed edges, enhanced the red, darkened the black, removed smudges) and it's now available as a print.
