Description I’m working on my drawings/paintings for Uni and I thought “why don’t you nerd around while you practice?”. So I tried to quickly sketch this man (also because I know Cumberbatch’s features by heart XD). I’m probably the only one in the world who thinks that Martin Fuckin Freeman is SO FUCKING DIFFICULT to draw. But fuck, I just seem to be absolutely incapable to do so. Sorry Martin, I’m so sorry, most of all because I love your face.

But still, Watson is a bitch to draw.

Also, this mania of mine of typography must be boring. I’m sorry, I can’t help it ;u;

Awesome composition - this reminds me a little of Brian Sanders's book cover illustrations from the 70s. Really cool.

Lui... lui... è... Martin Freeman. Santissimo dio, se è lui. Il suo naso, le sue sopracciglia. La fossetta sul mento. I capelli. Le orecchie. Le labbra. LO SGUARDO. LO SGUARDOOOOO.

Oh, you are definitely not alone in finding Freeman's face hard to draw. The jaw is fine...it's nice and square, but the eyes and nose are a doozy.

WAT
This is amazing! You nailed his features almost PERFECTLY, you hear, especially that one below on the left. Very well done!

(And I don't know if I'm biased by seeing this picture first, but I like this one better than the Cumberbatch one, though that one's lovely, too!)

Maerchentante [2012-02-10 08:32:55 +0000 UTC]

No, you're not the only one in the world, because I think so, too. And I love his face, too - he's just cute

But when I'm looking at your drawing and looking at mine... uh. Mine is crap against yours.

(I apologize for my creepy english, I've not used it for too long time...)

jamoozalee [2011-12-16 04:55:20 +0000 UTC]

Weeell, I think you captured him really well! I also love his face (so so much) so I JUDGE HARSHLY to be sure, but this is beautiful. I would buy a print and hang it on my wall to admire. The also buy the matching Cumberprint and hang them together and probably just spend all my days staring lovingly at them. Not just because they're Freeman and Cumberbatch, mind you, but because you did an awesome job and I like the way you put it all together and...

I love it.

True story.

Also, I like your typography!

I think you captured his features very well! Got to say that I actually like this one more than the Cumberbatch one, mostly because of the placing of focus in this one, it looks all tidy and simple and I like it. Brilliant work!~

What you have done is quite lovely though. I'm quite jealous!

I'm so jealous. I suck at drawing Martin, and here you are just with this masterpiece... I think you captured him brilliantly, if not perfectly.

Bilou020285 [2011-09-13 21:25:54 +0000 UTC]

Wow ! Great series of portraits, it's really amazing ! Well done ! Martin Freeman's face is totally different from Benedict Cumberbatch's one, but they have both the same qualities, great actors, great talent and very expressive faces. You perfectly figure that in your portraits ! Well done again !

thenizu In reply to Bilou020285 [2011-09-13 21:48:43 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much! Yup, I agree, they share a very expressive face and great skill, of course their series together is so pleasurable!

rewrittengirl [2011-09-13 20:56:10 +0000 UTC]

Don't worry, I find him INCREDIBLY hard to draw as well. Benedict is a piece of cake compared to this kitten faced prince.

Good job, btw! ^^
