Description Inspired by all these wonderful artists here on DA I wanted to do something similar, one of these foto reference drawings. Here it goes:

Took me 14 hours in total with my 3 tools of the trade: one rubber, one 0.5mm HB mechanical pencil (Pentel P205) and one 5.6mm 2B leadholder (Creatcolor 430 01); I used the pentel the most and actually no rubber at all

There was almost no post-production in Photoshop, just removing the dirt at the "frame" and adjusting the levels a bit.

Ah, thanks! Well yeah, the nose.. It was kinda hard to draw and I tried to follow the reference as much as possible (since this drawing was one of my first ones of this kind). But I agree, it looks a bit too straight.

Thank you anyways

Neh you made her far more beautiful than in real life, but of course, its amazing how you've kept the details and soft tone. It suits Jen.

Wow Great shading and everything.
Her hair looks a little unreal in some places, but it is remarkably good, especially for your first try, and I can see from your later pics that you have become even better at it!
Great pic though! You should do more like this!

You should be making up your own people. Someone as talented and creative as yourself. If your going for the direct likeness of Jennifer Anniston, you did a great job, because when I saw it, I knew who it was. Theres a weird dark line under her lip, kinda to the right, it comes off as shadow, but looks more like an error. The top of her hair was done well I would say, and her expression is so frozen. I guess more tone on her face like in the other picture, would make her look less like a statue. It is great, I cannot give anymore of comment unless I analyzed the actual photo.

This looks so beautiful, very real. You're great at realism. The contrast of the highlights in her hair look great, and the subtle transactions in your shading are very well done. Good pose too.

This looks really good. The shading is wonderful; it has a great contrast, and the detail is amazing, especially in the strands of her hair. And it looks just like Jennifer, from the jaw structure to the perfectly styled hair. Keep up the great work!
