yes, there are no pin-stripes, but the folds of the jacket are so much more interesting.
i also think the light background brings out much more of the graphic richness.
thank you once again.
i had never worked with pinstripes before and i was extraordinarily nervous about them! so, i avoided them and shaded the jacket to my liking first. i then went back with a mechanical pencil's eraser (to ensure thinner lines) and took out some of the pencil.
however! i HATED how messy it looked and ended up filling in all of the eraser pinstripes again. to get the finalized version, i erased a little bit but shaded the jacket a bit darker to create more concrete, defined stripes. after blending all of it (with m finger tip for the most part), it turned out looking a lot cleaner and more finished (in my opinion anyways).
and that's THAT story!
sounds like a very long process but i guess it only seems that way and was much easier to think about when you were actually doing it. clever though! some great ideas you have there.
