Artist's Comments

Wow, I haven't submitted anything in a while..

This is yet another realistic self-portrait of myself.. drawing.. @_@ I just wanted to practice drawing realistically and this is what I came up with. The bird looks kind of weird, so don't mind that.. There's also something wrong with my arms, maybe.. moreso my right arm (when facing the picture). I'm really left-handed, it's just that I was looking into a mirror when I drew this.

This was drawn using the one and only No. 2 pencil.. I have to admit, the background shading could've been done a lot better @_@; Took about 5 hours.. I think.

Wooosh.. critique welcome!

>w< I like it. When I try to draw realism, I can never draw/shade the noses and lips. >.< I have a lot of trouble shading, mostly. x.x

Let's all just pretend that love makes the world go round.

Oooo.. Yeah, shading the nose and lips isn't that easy... >_< It took a while for me to be satisfied with the face.. Thanks for the comment!
