Erik - Heavy Shades

After spending the past few days reading about German Expressionist film, I thought I'd try my hand at the style (as much as that's possible via still images). The heavy shading seemed like a good place to start.

Done entirely in photoshop, using a brush set to Multiply (at 7, 10 or 30% Opacity) the smudge tool, and the eraser tool (set to 30% Opacitiy), over four layers (rough guide, actual drawing, background, plain white Layer).
