Description A commission I did for an ex-colleague, which I finished last week after many, many hours of hard work (those curls... my goodness ). It was worth the blood, sweat, and tears, though, because not only did I have a lot of fun working on it, I also made one grandfather a very happy man.

Even though the hair and face are great as well, I really love how you drew the clothes here! For some reason they look very real, as if you just took a picture of them. Amazing job!

Aw, thank you! I'm really glad you like the T-shirt and the tuinbroek (), because I spent a lot of time on getting them to look just right, and apparently I succeeded. Yay!

Aww how cute <3
I love the shadings, very soft and light, quite fitting to the subject, nevertheless there are enough contrasts, so it looks still realistic. Also love the hair, it looks so detailed

That is amazing, I don't know how you do that. How long have you been drawing for to get to that level?

Suanin In reply to arzasfanelia [2011-08-13 12:07:28 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I think I drew my first 'real' portrait (well, something resembling a portrait, that is ) in 2003 or 2004. After that, I was unstoppable.
