wow

you have incredible skill at drawing

most portraits like this look a little skewed, well done but still off somehow

this one looks very accurate

very cool! men in black are awesome!

i love the way the thin chalk lines look like wrinkles without being too definitive within the picture.. that rocks!

Wow, very nice! Love the way you used the mediums. A few things throw me off, though. The left eye is entirely black, what I assume is the bottom of the ear looks quite off, like some sort of protrousion out of the side of his face. It feels like it should be farther to the left side of his face--right now it looks like as if it's comming out of his cheekbone. Also, it feels like his forehead is entirely too smooth. Don't get me wrong, though, it's still nonetheless a very nice portrait.

Advanced critique? ... As the others before me mentioned the highlight is missing from one of the eyes, and I think he has usually more crincle...
Other than these little things, it's wonderful!

Excellent work! I love the technique you used. The only thing that I can point out, and you probably intended to do it, is that he looks a little chubbier in this portrait than I remember him from the movies. Of course, that does not take anything away from the quality of the piece. Keep up the good work!

this is excellent! i think you used the white perfectly, except there isnt a reflection in the right eye which is kind of weird, but other than that it looks exactly like him

*Awesome* job. You captured him so well. I'm very impressed with your work.

Really well done. In one of my earlier art classes I'd tried something with white chalk and it ended up looking...well...not nearly as good as this. I think you captured his character perfectly with this, especially in the smile (if you can call it that).

That's pretty damn good. Only thing I can say is that the right eye's missin the highlights that the left eye has.

Very nice! I enjoy the use of the white on this one! Although since it is not the Muddy picture, I can try to critique it! Although it is hard to since it is very well done! Uhh.... I thought it was odd that his right eye has no light reflection. And... around his right ear looks slightly off, not sure what though. I really love the detail around his left eye and his mouth, really well done! Your gallery is very impressive!
