Platonic solids 2

As promised here is the cross-hatched version of the platonic solids, using an 0.1mm sepia drawing pen.


I found it easier to decide on relative tonal strengths having the graded boxes above for reference. The light source was very close and I couldn't at first make out very subtle differences in the lit surfaces. Having been forced to wear my reading glasses while using the pen, I then discovered that as the objects were then just out of focus and it was easier to discern the very faint differences towards the edges of these areas.
