just some portraits..=)

Guest

Well, I just signed up on here and I was looking around the forum page and when I saw "art" I got really excited, haha. I've been drawing for a few years so i figured I would post some stuff..

Well, that's my most recent

And that's another one=)

I read about Cassandra's contest she's holding for the graphic arts to give a reader a copy of COG and i was wondering if you could draw a picture.. cause she didn't mention anything about drawing.

anyways, it's fun seeing everyone else's artwork! I love ookamikaze's stuff I love you

. hopefully once finals are all finished I can draw some COB and COA stuff Smile

Wow, these are amazing! When I saw the first one, I thought it was a photograph. Great job! You should totally enter CC's contest.

For the top one, is her hair that colour? Or were you just using negative space to the best of it's advantage? Because they both look fantastic. The eyelashes and the eyebrows look really amazing. Really life like, and just spectacular. I am really drawn to the eyes of the top one -- because holy crap, that's some of the best highlights i've seen. And the teeth! How did you do that? Teeth are monsters and they are impossible to shade D: But yours look gorgeous.

They are both fabulously done m'dear. Oh man, they are just amazing. And I think the only thing slightly negative I can say is, just the way the head is positioned. XD. It makes you look up the noses and that kind of makes them look really snotty. XDD. Sorry, that's the only thing I find even slightly off. They are actually trully gorgeous.

thanks!

Yes, the one on the top had white-blonde hair so that was how her's turned up in black and white. Same with the other one.. which i found really hard to draw. She had brown hair and blonde hair and weird sticking-out hairs.

And teeth ARE hard. haha the one on the top was just really easy for some reason but generally teeth are the hardest part for me (As the bottom one shows.. Razz

)

haha and yes! I wish the one on the bottom had been face level but i didn't take the pictures so there wasn't much i could do haha. I liked the challenge of the angle of the one on top, it was fun Wink

And thank you Gema Very Happy

I was debating whether i wanted to draw how I picture Clary or whether I should draw Jace... hm.. scratch
