Description Well this one took about 2 to 3 weeks to finish! Used 2b, 4b, and 7b graphite pencils on the vellum paper. Picture reference taken from July Entertainment Weekly Mag. Used my camera instead of the scanner. Not sure if I like how it looks with the camera, I may try scanning it later. So what do you think? Comments welcome!!

er.... I don't know why but they look a bit weird.. Unless you intended to give emphasis on eyes and mouths.. Maybe their heads could be a bit longer, and I think Robert in reality has a heavier set of eyebrows than the rest..

Thanks, maybe I'll take another look at the reference and see if I can make some adjustments.

No not at all! That's one thing I like about here on DA, you have an artist eye and that helps me to see what I need to improve on!

it looks a bit like a caricature to me because you worked a lot on their personnal physical traits and because ou worked on their facial expessions a lot. good job, they're realistic though, they're cool to me (:

Thanks, it's hard to get facial details so that it will look like the person or persons you are trying to draw.

They're realistic but you've done it with your own style *-* I absolutely love it!

The clothes were a challenge but they turned out okay. As for her eye brow, that's how I saw it in the photo.

Scanning stuff like this makes it look so much worse. Taking pictures is a better idea for things of this nature.

I agree! Scanning hardly ever looks better in my opinion.

it works for art with more contrast, while with gradients and stuff its better to take a photo
