Penny Farthing

I've been working on a sequel to my Le Frou Frou piece lately as a wedding gift for some good friends.

Here are most of my early sketches, my first impressions on the idea.


Here on the right is my final sketch, on the left is the final tight figure drawing.


This is the final comp with all the elements. As well as a shading study.


I've actually finished the piece already but didn't want to post it until the gift was given.
I'll post the finish soon.
