PROCESS:

This is my entry for Art Explosion Week 26.
The theme being "vintage", oddly enough the first thing that comes to mind for me is old medical equipment such as needles that were used before single use disposable needles were around. Not the usual thing you would expect from "Vintage", but I have odd taste I guess.

I started with a pencil draft so that i could be sure the syringe looked believable before I went in with a fine liner.

Then taking an eraser and lightly erase all of the excess pencil marks before continuing.

After I finish the extra details around the syringe, i'll switch to a brush and Deleter Black 4 to fill in the background.
I use a dip pen and FW artists ink to dot out the stars on top of the black background.

Next up is markers, laying down all of the light colors first then going over top with the darker colors and blending them with a colorless blender.

An hour or so of blending later and i'll call it finished.
