And some photos
The colored pencils are Polychromos and the paper is in my Canson Mixed Media sketchbook. The texture that you see on the final photo is from when the page got screnched up. Not sure how that exactly happened, but that is the only thing that is wrong.
As for the drawing itself, I actually used my iPad mini as a lightbox and traced the image directly from the screen (instead of a piece of paper). Bad idea as the screen moved around, but still got a decent image. Overall I'm enjoying working on this drawing even though it is a little bit of a PITA sometimes. However, I have to remind myself that colored pencils are slower then I'm used to. Still having fun with them.
