Description ...EDIT...
Changed watermark once more...



I was having a small discussion with =hybridfan (can you remember, by the way? It has been a while!) about which series I like to watch and he suggested me to draw Rose McGowan sometime.

And now I did!

Yeah, I used to be, and still am, a huge fan of the Charmed series. I've seen every episode at least 2 times. First I didn't like her, but later I really started to appreciate her appearance in the series.

She also plays in a new movie, called Planet Terror. Never seen it though.


I'm really glad I finished this. Halfway the drawing it started to get very difficult (OMFG the hair ) and when things become difficult, I tend to quit immediatly.


The original drawing has shown her whole face, but I cut it off with Photoshop. LoL the right part looks kinda... bad.


Stuff I used:
  • 4H, 2H, H, HB, B, 2B & 3B mechanical pencils

  • unsharp 6B pencil... I lost my pencil sharpener

  • tissue for blending

  • crappy quality A4 sketchbook paper

  • Time spent: too much (meaning over 15 hours)



    One and only work in progress can be seen here!:
    Go check it out!

    Wow, that's amazing. I don't think I could make it look that good even if I took a photograph. lol (Especially not in 15 hours. 115 maybe.)

    I can't shade

    they can be found in my gallery, right here at deviantart!

    I've been drawing serious portraits since I was 15 / 16 or something like it, but I've drawn all my life it's never too late to get started!

    I haven't drawn realistically in a long long time. I should try again.
    It's funny, I tried to show my brother some of your stuff and he refused to look because he said that it depresses him. He doesn't like to look at the work of people he considers better than him. I tell him, its a great way to learn but whatever. I think it's awesome that you try to help people out with tutorials and talking to them. It helps out a lot Thanks

    Cataclysm-X In reply to Tahn [2009-02-18 16:16:29 +0000 UTC]

    exactly instead of getting depressed, he should get inspired and draw things for his own.

    By looking at other people's art who are far better than me, it motivates me to practice even harder.

    Oh but why wouldn't I help and talk to them, right? When I started with drawing and I looked for help, only a few wanted to help me out, like `Dianae . I love to help people too so there you go!

    I tried to tell him that. He even refuses to look at people he considers good that are in completely different areas. Like a 3D artist or digital painter. It's like comparing apples and oranges y'know? Sure they are both art, just as those two are fruit but it takes skill to do each and a love of what you are doing. You don't do it just to be better than someone, you do it cuz you love it. He just doesn't listen. Hardheaded little things those brothers are.
