Description

Moses, from the Bible, who performed wonders with his cane and brought his people across the ocean when it split.

I want to give a huge thanks to  shyamshriram for tons of inspiration and help. He probably doesn't know it, though... Thank you, Shyam. :)

I learned that it's hard to achieve a feeling of depth in the pic when working only with greyscales, but I find it very good practice.

Yeah sergK, I know. But I wanted to represent both happenings in the drawing, that's why both the snake and the stone plate is there. :)
Thanks for leaving a comment! :)

i like the way you've sketched this out. I see a few problems proportion wise wiht the hands i think..but concentrating on the face..I love it...
donno..i think it would be sweeter if youwere to add some contrast to the whole...would bring in more depth...
sweet work, and thumbs up from me,
love,

Good one Jane...but there are few anatomy issues...ok let me try to find out....
his hands are looking small as compared to his head, u need to work more on the ear construction...check out the head consturction, hand construction too...u could add some more contrast somewhere. keep it up !
thanx for mentioning my name here Jane...im honoured :)

Good drawing, I like the technique, reminds me of the illustrations in old Bibles.
And, yep, the hands :) His right hand is OK, just its angle and position are a bit unnatural. The left one has too small fingers - they should be longer and broader - just compare them to the ones on his other hand.
Except for this - good drawing, like it :)

You do not know the story of Moses? It's from the Bible. Moses did several wonders, with the help of God. In his attempt of persuing Egypt's farao of letting his people free, Moses threw his cane on the floor, and it changed into a living snake.

Moses is such a worthy subject. Thank you for a worthy representation. Want to see more Biblical themes!

And as for the snake... Pharoe's magicians threw done their staffs and they turned into snakes as well... but Moses/Aaron's snake staff ate up the Egyptians' staffs. A dark forboding of what was to come.

Shimmel5: Indeed. I do intend to make more Biblical theme pictures, and I am glad that someone requested that. I am awaiting the right inspiration for the upcoming picture.

Fantastic!!
I also imagine it with more contrast and harder black lines so it is more powerful...
Still, wonderful work! Keep it up with the Biblical themes. You are good!

Very nice Moses! He looks determined. And that snake scared me cuz I had to look closely to notice it haha. The only gripe I have is with the hand. It seems a bit small. MOSES NEEDS MAN HANDS! haha Otherwise, great work! Nice use of whites to bring out the picture btw.
