Description "Christine, I love you.."


As my friend said, "As long as 50% of his face is totally hot, I'm okay with it!"

I said to myself, "Anna, you have to draw something simple now, something that won't take too many hours!" and I thought, "What a great idea! Let's draw the Phantom" ..
Biggest mistake ever! I've never been so angry with a drawing in my entire life! Even the black background took more than two hours! FINGER-CRAMP!

It turned out okay, although the Phantom doesn't look alike .. So here it is.

Funny enough, I'm actually most proud of the candlestick (don't mind the actual flames - that was just an experiment).

Tools: B and B2 pencil
Time: 10 hours or so..


(Oh, btw. the referance from the picture to right is a screenshot I took from the movie )

(...And yes, I edited a bit on my laptop because my scanner wants to ruin my life by being the worst scanner in the world! xD )

Yeah, why is scanning a drawing always so difficult? XD

First of all, I always have to scan the picture twice since my scanner only takes A4 sizes. So I try to put the pieces together in Photoshop where I also try to fix the shading-problems. Usually i correct the "levels" and "Brightness and Contrast" and then I see how it end.
But actually I don't scan my drawings anymore. I take photos of them with my canon DSLR. It takes a lot less time, and the digital version gets better because my scanner is really fucked up now. It makes som weird black and white dots on the digital version for some reason, so I don't want to use it anymore! Taking pictures is apparently the way..

Wow, wall of text, sorry But hope it answered your question! And thanks for the comment !
