Description
This is fellow Deviant ~BfME2Graphite.
I chose to sketch his portrait for a contest #PortraitPencilArt is having for members to draw members because I liked the angle of his face and because apparently due to drawing Russell Crowe too many times, I've developed a penchant for drawing stubble. *grin*
I do not like the new paper I just bought; this drawing didn't turn out as well as I would've liked because I discovered I could NOT blend, the paper is just too rough. It will be okay for rough sketches but not for smooth drawings.

Awww Thanks for liking this sketch, it was just a rough little thing, I've been truly surprised how much everyone liked it, I think it was the appeal of the subject; it was a great shot Enes took of himself at a really unusual angle, and people liked it. Thanks for your support sweetie! I've sure missed ya!

Awww thank you! ^__^ I love your signature, by the way. Makes me think of Buckaroo Bonsai. He always said that.

hi, what's graphite? is it just ordinary pencils, or similar to carbon?

AthenaTT In reply to Dragonfly22 [2008-03-22 23:56:02 +0000 UTC]
Graphite just means pencils were used, that's all ^___^

This is so wonderful, and not as rough as you think. I was wondering what press paper you do normally use? To see the fine gradations, even here, It is impeccable!
