Faces of Melisande - pencil

I'm apparantly doing a series. This was the first, which I then traced onto another piece of paper and then inked. I liked that so much I sketched it in PS and digitally colored it in faux oil style. The last one completed, however, got loaded first. So this is the second. The ink version will be last. I like them all. They're so different. And I'm apparantly head over heels, madly in love with a fictional character.

For your viewing pleasure, ladies and gentlemen, Melisande Shahrizai, intellectual property of Jacqueline Carey. I merely borrowed her and returned her in like condition.
