Description WIP of the portrait of Michael C Hall ([link] ).

These pictures are photos of the portrait (excepted the last one which is the scan), the quality is not excellent but it ables to have an idea of the progression I needed approximately 20h to finish it.

Stanbos In reply to hooobajube [2011-03-11 16:19:39 +0000 UTC]

Thanks x) I leave the clear areas white and I darken the rest, then I use a kneaded eraser to contrast more and more

Daricia [2011-02-20 08:54:26 +0000 UTC]

May i ask how you get it so dark? Mine always goes shiny and stays gray, is it the paper's problem?
Beautiful work by the way.
