Redirect to original
Description
Ok. So I'm keeping it short. This is not a paint over or a photomanipulation. All of this was done by hand and no filters were used. If you think otherwise, then you can go suck a large penis.I've also had problems with people accusing me of tracing this picture, and many others. -__- I don't trace. I don't care if you dickwads don't believe me, I didn't trace. It's called using grids and taking time on making your sketch accurate. So what if it looks like the original, i spent a LOT of time making it look like the picture. That doesn't mean it's traced. If you have anything negative to say about my drawings then don't bother commenting at all, because as of now i'm done dealing with you people. Go waste your petty time elsewhere, instead of falsely accusing someone of stuff they didn't do.
Two words:
HOLY SNAP!
So this is for my friend, , she did a twilight drawing also in pencils, but it got deleted , even after she got a daily deviation on it! it really made me sad to see such an awesome picture get deleted because of a ridiculus reason, so this is for eileen!!! i hope you like!!!
I painted EVERYTHING on here, i used 2 brushes only. i even painted the little patterns and ridges on the clothes, OMG it was so tedious.............
By the way for a sketch, i used grids. and i used 3-4 layers total for the painting and shading after i merged the painting to one layer to complete it overall.
PLEASE DO NOT STEAL!!
Twilight belongs to Stephenie meyer
I referenced this off the big twilight movie poster.
Time: 60+ hours, used photoshop elements 5.0

You use grids? That's a pretty cool idea, and it makes sense. I always try to freehand when I use references, but that sounds like a great way to improve my skills, I must try! ^-^

The detail here is so amazing. But then, you knew that! That's why you worked so hard! Totally beautiful! Screw people who are criticizing for it being the exact of something that already exists. They're jealous cause they can't do it. (Truth be told, so am I. Except I don't be mean to people just cause they have a great talent.) <3 <3 <3 Beautiful!

ok in case ths is not traced like you say, what is the point of spending 60+ hours making something that already exists exactly as it is, ppl will say its a trace, and you cant use it anywhere because it belongs to someone else?
just curious

Because I wanted to challenge myself to see if I can get the details like the photograph. I really enjoy it.
>like I say
yes, because it's not traced at all. I used a grid and spent a lot of time on the sketch.

i remember back in the day using grids and spending a day transferring from reference..... but now if im really going to just copy a photo reference and not alter it, photoshop and a printer save a lot of time
of coarse ive always been kinda slow too!

I'm not a fan of Twilight at all--BUT your talent is completely and utterly remarkable. The work you must have put into this should be praised instead of ridiculed.
You captured the entirety of the picture and executed MORE than successfully. Be proud! Don't let other people get you down!

As much as I dislike Twilight, this is incredible. The attention to detail (Especially the hair and clothing) blows me away, and your attention to lighting and value is impeccable as well. Amazing work!

Just think - if people have to say the pic is traced, photo-manip, whatever... that the painting is good enough for people to at first think it's an original pic. I honestly thought it was traced at first until I read the details and saw the steps. Really good painting, my dear.
