Description

I had this sketched up in my art box for a little while and decided to finish it tonight after buying some colored ink. Drew him with his hair out of le ponytail just because.

Materials:
-Parchment paper
-Sumi Ink (black)
-Korean bamboo brush
-Bamboo calligraphy brush
-Chinese ink brush pen
-India Ink (crimson)

Side note/fact: I do not use water at all to dilute the ink when it comes to shading. I also do not use any sort of paint brush. Sometimes I use my fingers to shade~

You did a nice job at capturing his face, and the shading is great. I think the hair could have been thinner, or there could have been less of it to be more realistic. The hair's volume gives it a look more like that of Madara's hair. I like that you only used color for the eyes; it really emphasizes the Sharingan. Also, it would have looked better if you continued drawing until the bottom so that his head wouldn't just be floating in the middle of the page. You have a nice contrast in this picture. I think it would have been even better if instead of lines there was some sort of background, though those take a lot of time, and the picture is already really amazing as it is.
