Description UPDATE: I'm so sorry for hitting your inbox with this one again, but as I said below, my scanner sucks and I lost a load of details. But Ariel has her now and scanned her for me and it's soooo much better You can see the details in her face and hair now Thank you Ariel

I'm finally almost finished with my prizes, just one more ATC to go

This one is for for catching my 50K kiriban. I hope you like it The scan has wiped out some of the darkness and details because of the high contrast But thankfully Ariel you'll get to see them in the flesh

Materials for this one:
Very slightly smaller than A4 - Mellotex
Graphite
Blue Tac
Tortillion
Tissue
Eraser
Time: About 18 hours
Ref: I was kindly given permission from *May-Machin to draw this image of Ariel's choice fav.me/d1x7ai0

Many thanks for having a look
Paula

This is really amazing, but you completely bluffed the hair; It looks terribly arranged against the lovely chaotic, unpolished glamorous realism of her face. Her hair in the photo had such interesting lines, I'm surprised you ignored it to improvise. Nevertheless, I know a fantastic drawing when I see one; Well done. But of course, a pat on the shoulder does nothing to move an artist to improve, now does it?

Thank you and for faving

I did bluff the hair indeed, I'm sorry you don't like it so much It was a conscious decision though, the hair on the photo was so very black and dark, in graphite it would have been a shiny mass.

Feedback is always welcome here, your thoughts are appreciated

That is very wicked!! You have amazing artistic skills here!! Half of her face look like she's slowly decaying meaning that she is a dead girl. So cool

That liquid looks realy, realy impressive, what I forgot to say in the previous WIP, I'm most impressed of that cause for my opinion liquid is so hard to draw^^ Also the face looks amazing, which I'm used from your art

I'm so glad you like her I'm sure you saw the comment, the scan has washed out some parts and my photography skills are severely lacking so that's not an option, this is the best I could do

But, you'll see soon enough

ArielRGH In reply to pbird12 [2012-07-11 21:27:37 +0000 UTC]

I was comparing it to the ref... your drawing has kind of a more defying look, mostly because of how you drew the eyebrow. I had my doubts on how you were going to do the frame of the shower door, because you still had not got to that part in the WIPs, but you did awesome. Also I think I like better the half-mouth you drew than the original.

When it gets here I'll scan it too, I'll see if my scanner does a better job, or if I can process it differently somehow. I also scanned Katy Perry's eyes but my scan looks pretty much exactly the same as the scan you got, so I didn't post or say anything about it. I don't know what will happen with this one.

pbird12 In reply to ArielRGH [2012-07-11 21:32:34 +0000 UTC]

I try and not get especially caught up with 100% likeness when it's not someone everyone knows, I love when that's not a worry, it makes it even more fun

I loved the reference from the minute you sent it, so it was a pleasure drawing it and the new textures were great too, I wondered about that frame myself for a while!

Thank you, don't worry too much, I don't like to change my images anyway once they are there, but I am glad you'll see it in the flesh. There's no 8B lumo on this one, I preferred the graphite shine, it worked pretty well for wet hair, but that's lost on the scan which is a shame

I think I might have misplaced your address Would you mind sending it to me again?
