how did you make your eyes look like they have light reflecting off of them so real kinda like a glossy look

I can tell this was drawn because it looks the tiniest bit surrealistic. Still...the eyes amaze me.

Non mais tes yeux sont magnifiques ! J'adore la façon dont tu recrées la peau dans tous les dessins, c'est éoustouflant à quel point c'est réaliste. J'aimerais avoir ta patience !!! La moustache et la barbes sont très très très bien faits aussi

I love the expressions people get when they do self-portraits, it's like seeing what they would be seen as without encumberance (new word to fit)

That is great ^^ You have such a doofy grin :3 You take a photo for this or use a mirror? Ive tried self portraits in the far past (like... when I was a kid) and it was always difficult. This is an awesoem effort ^^ It's so clean

Cute! I especially love the freckles, but the whole thing is really well done. I'm always amazed at how artists can make their drawings look so smooth. No matter how I go about blending, mine always come out looking very sketchy. I mean, it's not necessarily a bad thing, maybe it's just my subconscious style, but either way... I'm jealous of you and your smoothness!
