Bristol rough sketch

this is the picture of bristol bridge that i have been currently working on..just finished sketching it.....dunno if you can see...i dint draw hard with the pencil since its a rough sketch and will be painted in watercolour shortly when i have the time...i personally think its going to take me a while to finish this picture as like i said.....im not very good with landscapes/townscapes.....especially with mixing the colours to get the correct colour...so will be a challenge for me and will learn some new techniques as ill keep painting,but i think the final result should be good if it goes well and i put my 100% effort...and if its good....ill put it in my porfolio :D
this wasnt the most easiest sketch to do AT ALL....purely cos theres so much detail and you have to get the proportions right.....im such a perfectionist!!!..if its something that i do...it has to be good or else..nothing...its not a good thing but it is..at least ill be proud in what i do...being a perfectionist isnt so bad.....i think.... :S..hehe..
what i tend to do is...if its not going to well...ill leave it for 2 days or 3 and then come back to it and it doesnt seem as bad as it was 3 days ago...
the picture is actaully one of my own that i took when i was in bristol...as you can tell....
artists when they sketch or paint a bridge they normally love to draw the landscape around it and such....but in mine...its concentrating on the beautifull architecture wich of course is the bridge!




sorry for the pictures not been well taken....the pencil was to faint for the camera to cacth it...so had to put more contrast.
