So I get that you think it is symbol drawing it might even be. However, this isn't a traditional pencil only drawing. I am basically trying to just leave things an outline so that when I paint over it with watercolor or gouache I have an idea where things go that already sort of reads.

eyes for example need to just be the outlines. Darker values will come later. If I add a bunch of extra pencil lines then it will muddy things up. I included the darker details on the bow because they will be some of the darkest in the image so painting over the dark pencil will be fine.

I am happy to admit my technique to doing this is wrong, but if anyone has better resources for how to do a watercolor pre-drawing please share them with me! Thanks!
