Description That's what I've been spending my last... month... drawing >__> It packs a good 20-22 hours and half of my pencil box in the making! But I'm really happy with the result, as it's the first time I do a portrait.

Heavily inspired by the work of `Cataclysm-X (specially the blue eyes, which sadly aren't much noticed after scan), without whom I would've probably never attempted this :D

This is beautiful! Its hard to believe its pencil! It practically looks digital. I love the eyes look as well but the left optical is a bit off, as well as some of the wrinkles's shadows on the shirt not working with the area the sun is at. But other than that its wonderful.

That's simply amazing, especially the folds of the fabrics look very real. Most people usually don't realize how hard it is to get the structure right of clothing, but you did incredibly well. Bravo my friend and I'm flattered you mentioned my name in the description. Thank you once more.

Thank you
(I realised how hard it is to draw hair with this ^^ I can't figure out how you manage to make the individual strands stand out... I'll have to try that some day)
And the clothing is actually off compared to the picture. There's a whole stripe missing on the right side XP

psssst! Never tell anyone the exact mistakes you've made. And even if people notice them, say you made them on purpose ;D

I keep changing my techniques on drawing hair. Right now I just draw lines in a certain direction without paying too much attentio to their structure and lightfall. After I got all the lines (= hair strands) done, I shade and highlight them later

haha you're right, it's just the kind of stuff that eats me away when I think back on it XP
I'll try this next time (when the lighting of the picture is less extreme, couldn't do much this time )
