I really like the style of drawing here, this character reminds me of the movie Eyes Wide Shut in the creepiest yet coolest way possible.

Nicely rendered! but a more delicate color might uphold the sophistication better. Then again, I understand having favorites.

Aww, thank you for all the kind comments again -



I think a softer color would bring it out more, but blacks tend to print pretty solid on bold colors too.



Inspiration for this was a project I had over the summer in my Advertising class, had to do a project about cultures around the world. Italy was one of the countries I chose to focus on: hence the awesome mask. :)

this is amazing!! it'd be cool if you could get some more colors in...like, colors Venice or Italy are known for...maybe some more red? it's so cool tho, either way. :)

Whoa - weird photo comparison (the stock image) -



I think I used the same (or almost the same - Venetian masks are all pretty similar) mask as reference when I was drawing this over the summer. I went to a local costume shop (Acme Costumes in Pooler, GA) and sketched a ton of masks.



I really love that photo though, thanks for linking it. :)
