When you get a chance, [attach a lightning address](https://stacker.news/wallets/lightning-address). We switched to a non-custodial setup so without a receiving wallet, you get something more like gift credits (which are comparatively lame).

I draw from reference photo (color).
But before painting I render the scan through a monochromizer:

Then I draw the outline of face and features in pen and then add ink with brush.
That's it. The painting takes about 45 min. Retouch was 2 hours, but well spent for education and final result. 

Below the painting pre-retouch. Completely different person, unfo XD.

> This time I retouched the work in MS Paint.

I was going to ask how you made it look like a scan. I've been enjoying the series.
