Exciting! Great energy and power! Very believable and effective use of just enough detail to satisfy the eye

The soluble pencils worked efficiently well and gave crisp line for the bow and white acrylic pen for the sides as it blends in with the greyish and white sea spray! The horizon line distinguishes a distance where the sky filters out... too!

A post war Battle class destroyer painted on canvas with soluble graphite pencils as an experiment. I have aded minor details using a black ink pen and white acyrlic pen. It seems to work well!
