Description Ahhh, submission before school! A had a bit of time the other night so I did a black & white portrait. This one is of James McAvoy (inspired from recently watching the movie Atonement).

More info later (I hope xD)

I'm in love with him lol I love how you see all these pics and films with him where he's so serious, but you know from interviews that he's a raging prankster. I love that dichotomy that he pulls off so seamlessly.

Ah, he was sexy in that movie. :3
Still sexy. xD

I finished reading Atonement a while ago, it was a really good book. The ending depressed me a little though, with Briony growing so old and all. D:

Anyway, awesome work as always. Now, when you do these, just out of curiosity, do you trace over the photo ref or do you just look off of it? 'Cause this looks awesomely real. ^^

Oh yes~! x3
Love that accent of his. <3

Ooh, you read the book? I heard it covers the story in much more detail than the movie, which makes sense. The book usually always does! xD
Now I wanna read it~ I wish Briony could've stayed her adolescent self though, minus the sneaky side she had.

Thank you! When I do these portraits, I have the photo ref and my drawing side by side to each other, but I don't trace. I make a quick sketch first, by looking over at the ref. It's much more of a challenge that way, and I guess I like it like that, even with there being noticeable mistakes when comparing the two. xD

Yep, I read the book! I heard it was really good, so I usually prefer to read the book over seeing the movie. Phantom of the Opera, for instance. I've never seen the movie, so I'm reading it now. ^^ Whee!

You're welcome! I figured you didn't trace over it but some people do, I was just making sure. lol xD But yeah, it looks great.
