Very good biro drawing of this sheep's skull, it turned out exceptionally well and looks so realistic, nice cross-hatching and textured surface for mandible and brain stem medulla oblongata from what I vaguely remember of the the human skull, but would differ in a sheep's Anatomy. Well drawn and sacred too as sheep are precious indeed!

This was my first attempt at a Biro work , this time using only one black pen - it took about 3 hours .This skull of a sheep happens to be lying in our garden so I did a quick outline pencil sketch on site then used a phone shot to reference inside out of the sun. I Don't eat meat - serious mammal meat allergy!
