Please respect your fellow artists and ask permission to use this piece as any kind of reference, if not for me, for those who are still learning ethical boundaries in the art-world.

Materials used: Ball point pen- black, red, purple, vivid blue

Colored Pencil - the whole spectrum

A4 approximate-sized card paper

30+ hours

No direct references, but the bonsai is inspired by the artist Masahiko Kimura's bonsai collection, really worth checking out.

These are the progress shots and WIP links

Interesting piece, and well worth the effort! Great title as well.

No worries. I work from references, and life in my own art. If a piece is based on someone else's creation, I let everyone know. I have a degree in Digital Audio Engineering; I have clear respect and understanding of Intellectual Property Law, and ethics. Many respects on your passion to encourage others to lead by example.

The Preux Chevalier exists only in fairy tales, not in history. The Middle Ages were violent. The knight in armor was not always a nice guy.
