Description
...EDIT...Added a lot more details to the shirt and changed a bit on his face
I did this before I gave the original away but never posted the updated version so there you go ^_^
.......................................
Sam: 'Dean, there's ten times as much lore about angels as there is about anything else we've ever hunted.'
Dean: 'You know what, there's a ton of lore on unicorns too. In fact, I hear that they ride on silver moonbeams, and that they shoot rainbows out of their ass!'
Sam: 'Wait, there's no such thing as unicorns?'
....
Dean: 'Bitch'
Sam: 'Jerk'

Fo
Hope you like it baby
Jared Padalecki played Dean in Gilmore Girls, and these days he plays Sam in Supernatural!
----------------------------
I thought I would have a lot of troubles drawing this image. The reference image was very pale and had a few contrasts. I didn't know what to do!
A few weeks ago I bought a dvd box of Supernatural with season 1 to 3. Now that was a nice reference for me. The more I watched, the easier it was to draw Jared Padalecki.
The hair was easy to draw, but it looks very different from the original photo. I think I'll keep working this way. A realism portrait doesn't have to be an exact copy and drawing like this is leaving my trademark.
The skin however was incredibly hard to draw. From a short distance it looked nice but from a large difference it looked bad so I had to refix it over and over and over again.
Background was fun to draw. I always keep wondering if I won't screw up when adding a background but I guess I didn't. At least I think so. ;D

Time spent: approx 20 to 25 hours

For the very first time I'm 100% pleased about the watermark, lol!
Stupid people, stop stealing my work! Watermarks are 'fugly'
Title from Metallica.

I never got hooked to Supernatural. It came on when Smallville came on. XD Just on two different channels.

it's strange how real those eye-brows look, you always pay such attention to detail, don't you ever get tired of it?

BlackDelphin In reply to ??? [2008-12-13 12:09:08 +0000 UTC]
that's what i wonder about a lot!! when i draw a traditional like that, up close it's nice, but when i further back, >_> it's nasty...or the other way around; perhaps because our eyes get used to the up-close way it looks?
anyways nice job! i think i'll watch some of the eps too
and awesome eyes!

Talk about talent, but I knew that about you already. I think he's fantastic, and the shading is phenomenal.
Small question, if I may, the stubble looks pretty amazing, I just wondered how you drew it? I personally always struggle. :S
