Description

When working traditionally I really enjoy drawing with black and white on a midtone paper and I decided today that I don't do it enough digitally. At first leaving the initial sketch layer visible was an accident, but I actually prefer it that way.

I see Ken around sometimes but I have always been without a camera or my phone has died, then finally just before Christmas I was able to take a photograph so that I could draw him.

Nice portrait! I like how you represented it in black and white, with all these details... I just remember your other works which were very well done as well, with your kind of style.

A beautiful portrait. Looks like you rushed the ears, and it lacks a strong light. But the crosshatching and expression are fantastic. Great job!

Thank you.
The ears didn't really have a strong light, they were more subtle in comparison to the rest of the face because of the lighting and that he has quite an angular face so I didn't want to render them too much (I had been attempting to try and show depth by not having them as sharp as the rest of his face but I guess I didn't really pull that off lol.) ^_^

I think its because objects that are equal depth to the ear... the edge of his neck, the color of the shirt, and the hat... I think because those look sharper it just makes the ear stand out a bit.

I really like how this drawing looks as well, you have had so much detail and once again it must have taken many hours! I'm very impressed and you have gained yourself a favorite on this cool photo!
