Any critiques are welcome. Graphite pencil 2b-hb-6b- 180g printer paper*.
Reference are characters from a movie called Centurion. Brush used only to blend the women's hair at bottom right and the helmet.
Scanners hate graphite so i did two versions with different setups to help people understand the drawing. I appreciate any advice thanks for your attention. :)
*printer paper 180g is cheap so i made a sketchbook to practice, not the best choice but works for now.

I posted my info here yesterday in the hopes of getting a review, but my comment was immediately hidden by a bot "for spam". I'm guessing it didn't like the link to my ArtStation portfolio. I did open a dispute, but I guess moderators don't work on Sundays so if it ever gets unhidden, it will sadly be too late for that review.
Your bot is a real jerk. Just saying.
Other ppl post their artstation links and pictures without problems maybe you should try help center at the botton of the page, that can help you get your problem fixed .

This is my first final work in a long while, maybe 18 months. So happy to eventually have worked out something that's not just an exercise.
It's an application of triangular composition to a symbolic subject.
Dip pen, manga nibs, indian ink on bristol paper.
I'm experiencing some issues with the ink I'm using (Encre de Chine - by Herbin). Not dark as I'd like and it dries too fast on the nib.
I tried Sennelier too but it gives a glossy effect if the layer is too thick. I want it matt.
Any suggestions about brands I could try ? Thought about something from manga world ?:)

i have light sensitivity and is hard to keep up after 1 or 2hr looking to the paper. Any tips to deal with it ? Sometimes after a break i lose my thoughts and take time to get on point again.
