I was looking at this car for a long time passing by from Borough Park in Brooklyn. It was parked on few different places, on driveway or street. Looks like it is Plymouth Belvedere 1955 or may be 1957, but 1957 doesn’t have words Belvedere on a side, but sort of check mark. Color is metallic blue towards periwinkle. I didn’t want to add color, used ink only and Kuretake brush in Moleskine A4.

Again, I’m a fan of the way you treat the background trees. Which color is this (mid-brown?)? I wouldn’t mind trying a sepia or dark brown brush pen but most sepias I try are a bit too pink for my taste.

Thank you, Chepablo. I mix my own ink, here from sepia and black. So it vary from sketch to sketch. Trees happens naturally (in any size) as brush goes. So many beautiful trees in Brooklyn.
