I like it very much. What brush pen are you using?

A Tombo ABT N15. On other paper it’s a very dark black.
Thanks for the kind words!

I love your drawing! Moleskine paper is sized and It behaves strangely with watercolour as well, especially thin washes. I do quite like the different shades of black, it adds depth.

This is wonderful. I admire the brush strokes no matter what pen you use. Try the Faber-Castell PITT artist brush pen. It works well with moleskine paper.

Thanks for the kind words, Bunny and Leo.
Rudat, I will seek out the pen you speak of. Thank you!
