Description Bogart and Bacall.
This is from a publicity photograph for "To Have and Have Not", the only film of their's that I have seen so far.
I'm very pleased with how this turned out- I think it may possibly be my best to date, although it looks a bit better in real life- solid black never scans as well as it should.
I apologise for the watermarking. I wish I didn't have to do it, but I need to protect my work, just in case....

Materials: 0.5 lead #B mechanical pencil, 8B solid graphite pencil, kneadable eraser, plastic eraser, blending stumps, cotton buds, tissues
Size: a little under A3
Time Taken: probably about 20 hours

Enjoy! Comments and favs are most welcome.

Edit: A big generic 'thankyou' to everyone who s this or another of my pieces. It was a lovely surprise to receive a DD for this, and while I'll endeavor to answer all questions, I just haven't the time to respond to all favs. Homework, you know. So thankyou!

Yes, it certainly makes photos of them around then extra-special, doesn't it? There's such a lot of emotion in them.
Thankyou so much!

The details in this are excellent. At first when I saw the thumb I thought you plagarized a photo. Im impressed with details in the hands, hair, drapery eerything is just great. I believe Becall's name is spelled with an e not an a btw. Ive seen them together in two movies the big sleep and key largo.

And Bacall definately has an 'a', I'm afraid. Go see IMDB: [link]
