Description Attempt at a realistic portrait of David Bowie.There's something weird about it, but I can't figure out what it is... soooo..... if anyone sees what that is, please tell me ^_^

*edit* Tried to improve it. He's a little fatter now. Took a very close look at Bowie's eyes.... they are weird, staring in slightly different directions.

It`s the eyes. In real life Bowies pupils are not the same size. One is permanently dilated due to an accident.

It still looks amazing though.

IT IS REALISTIC AND AWESOME!!! Also I think the eyes are focused on two different points, the intensity is a little creepy too... Sooo intense...

David Bowie has the coolest face ever!! Every time I see it, it always looks slightly different. I don't know what it is, but it's awesome.

his eyes are weird because when he was a kid he told his best friends girl that he wasn't going to come so he tried to steal her from him and then his friend found out and punched him in his eye messing up his pupil making it slightly larger than the other!

His eyes are wrong. the left pupil is supposed to be larger.

MidnaofTwilight3519 [2011-12-29 19:34:06 +0000 UTC]

This is really great, my dear. The shading around his mouth, especially. I think his hair is almost a bit to clean. It makes it look as though it's greasy, and in this era especially, his hair was always a bit mussed, you know Also, you may want to pull the iris and pupil of his right eye (That's the one on our left) a bit to the centre adn down a SMIDGE, while the pupil of his left eye (The one to our right!) should be considerably larger. That eye was always dilated, so that there was only a thin rim of colour to his eye. Other than what I mentioned, darling, this is REALLY just fantastic. Keep up the good work, you may even get a Daily Deviation! I know for sure I'd give you on, if I had the authority. Bravo.

TokioHotelRocker13 [2011-06-11 02:49:25 +0000 UTC]

one pupil, the right side needs to be larger than the other, cuz he got in a fight when he was young and his eye was permenantly dilated.

I think you also drew his cheekbones a little lower than they really are. Nice job, though!

Tiekeneiken [2011-03-20 15:19:20 +0000 UTC]

This looks awesome! Great techniques

Did you use a foto reference? If so, you allways need to correct the eyes. A camera lense "bulges" the image. This is usually inconspicuous unless the person is looking at the photographer, in which the case the eyes will look as if they're pointed in different directions

His right eyebrow looks a little elongated, but otherwise it's EPIC.

faILpiNTFuTUReiN [2011-02-01 02:08:14 +0000 UTC]

I think I have the reference picture and
The bangs stop at the end of the ear lobes
the forehead is a tad smaller
the eyebrows are closer to the eyes
I guess

Game-Of-Chance [2010-12-02 21:55:02 +0000 UTC]

Awesome! I think the left eye is over a bit too far, to me it looks like his left is drifting while the right is looking at the "camera"

zelda-freak99 [2010-11-25 04:07:44 +0000 UTC]

Maybe his eyes? The right is sorta straight on while the left is astray just a touch.
Still, it's amazing!
