Quicksand Fans

I'd been trying my hand at some art and was trying to illustrate a scene from a story I'm working on. It didn't come out brilliantly as the reference photo I was using was a bit forced but I thought I'd post it to see if others liked it...

You've been holding out on us, my friend. Fantastic work! I sincerely hope this is only the first of many artworks you will grace us with.

It looks like you have quite a bit of experience drawing. Are you telling me that's your first time drawing quicksand art?

Looks good!! Traditional markers for the win

Yes, I studied art but I was mainly into portraiture which is why the face looks a lot better and more detailed! I hadn't really considered quicksand art until working on a story. Plus my figure drawing is a bit shit which is why I find good reference to base it on.

Also I was using a lightbox at work before anyone got in as I didn't want anyone to see what I was drawing, and I got a bit rushed at the end!

Well I call them brush pens as that's what most of them are. Some I would call markers. Others are fineliners.
