From Usagi Yojimbo volume 3, this is my most ambitious piece yet as it contained 3 main focal points where it could have gone wrong. Really pleased with how this turned out, but not too happy with my new Sharpie fineliner. Prefer the old Faber-Castel one.
This was done this weekend in the pub in Cornwall on a well-deserved 5 day break in the car.

Wow, you packed a lot into this piece. I agree that the pen can make a difference. Everyone has a favorite.

Thanks folks! I love the idea of framing using something other than straight lines, it's quite a learning curve.

Thanks Mann! Actually we were on the mulled wine that night. They have a mulled wine machine in the King Arthurs Arms and we needed something to get us through the night as it was helll of stormy and we were camping...
