Syd's Challenge / Orange and Blue
Being away for a few days, I finally had the time to answer Syd's Challenge on the Forum: Orange and Blue. I made the ink drawing with a Unipin 0,8 marker. The paints are Cadmium Orange and Ultramarine Blue by Winsor and Newton. Because of the opacity of the orange, I had to redraw some ink lines after the watercolour was dry.

What do you think?
