Not sure why I hadn't posted this earlier, but I did this back in Feburary to March. It took me about 3 weeks of on and off work, and I took pictures of it as I progressed through. So this is a little more in depth, but I think someone would like to see a bit of how I did certain things, or what order I did them in. This is a drawing of Tagg; www.twitch.tv/thatguytagg
First drawing, I did in Paint.NET (with my mouse, it took a while), using a reference picture I had.
Paint.NET drawing:

I then made a sketch drawing on paper. Then I penciled in the zentangles, then using LE Pen I traced them, then using sharpie I filled in the patterns.

After that, I did water color using different values of cobalt blue and purple, then I used a kosher salt and plastic wrap technique to give it small spots and a "broken ice" texture on a seperate sheet of paper. Then using a knife, I cut the drawing out and spray glued it to the sheet that had the water color.

I hope you all liked this, and I hope you learned something from it :)

It's better to draw lightly than darkly, you can easily add more pencil, but not so easily remove pencil. Also the lighting in my room is not very good. It's usually better to take pictures during the day so I can use the natural light from my windows, but this time it was night, so I had to use the lights in my room, which cause things like what you are noticing.
