Claw hand II

Claw hand again. This time in PEN.

I like drawing in pen, once you remove the safety of an eraser its so much more important that you don't mess up. Also, using a darker colour means you can generate some sweet sweet chiaroscuro, leaving highlights and exaggerating darkness etc. Drawing hands is interesting, especially mine as they have taken such a beating over the years. If you haven't heard of the game 'Rugby Fives', look it up, you'll know what I mean.

As for material, I'm still drawing fairly boring stuff, I'm yet to actually go for something adventurous. Any more suggestions? I lean towards things with a lot of tone, as you can tell from this drawing (maybe) that I go for cross-hatching, keep that in mind.
