Description Nicole Kidman in graphite, ebony jet-black pencil. 75% of the time was spent on the hair, and it still looks weird. The pose is kinda awkward as well. Its kinda hard to tell that you are facing her back. What do you think?

All hail and bow to great pencilwork here

Weird? Psh. Never. *grin* It's REALLY neat. Nicole Kidman is one of the rare natural beauties, and you've captured it.

I think the hair looks great, it looks very detailed and looks as if you put a lot of time and effort into it. I love how right away I can tell who it is you're drawing, you truly have an amazing gift!

rotane [2004-01-04 16:06:28 +0000 UTC]

dont say her hair looks weird, it looks great, its full of detail! one obviously notices you spent most the time on this. but compared to her hair and face the rest of her body seems to be a bit too rough or quickly drawn althou i usually like some fade-out-stlye.. don't get me wrong thou, the hair and face are top-notch! you definitely have some skill! again, awsome!

about her pose: well, i wouldnt say its hard to tell it's her back.. thats just the way it looks

a-liah [2003-12-06 16:30:40 +0000 UTC]

its easy to tell im facing her back.. didnt the hair take you ages? curls take so long and look so fake when i finished drawing it, like spaghetti i dunno.. her hair looks great tho!

Wow thats so good - she looks just the same - i thought it was a photo - for real - you should send a copy to her with fan mail or something coz if some one did a sketch of me that was that good - i'd want a copy - great job

Osmeon [2003-11-12 22:23:04 +0000 UTC]

I think her hair looks great. It must've been especially difficult to do since it's blonde. Eyes and skin are, as always, grogeous.

Osmeon In reply to Osmeon [2003-11-13 01:23:18 +0000 UTC]

Umm... yeah...

Grogeous (grogeously, grogeousness) adj.- The quality of being grogeous. Like gorgeous, but so much better. Grogeousness is better than gorgeousness in ways that cannot be told, can only be felt.

grogeous?

I think that's the second time someones called my work grogeous! Now I really must know what that means....

I have this picture on my wall!! cool eh? the original, not yours, this is the first I've seen of yours

it's very good though, I love it. and the pose looks a little awkward in the photo too, I think it's just the perspective. I love your shading.. so smoooth and skin-like. I have a hard time with that since I love to chicken scratch

I really really like how you did the lips, they're gorgeous

I have to say that I absolutely love this one >_< It's so gorgeous and looks JUST like her. =3 I'm a Kidman fan myself, I just cant draw. But I love it, and the pose is great. Hair is very gorgeous... And I recognized the pose right off. How can you not know that's her back? +FAV!

wow, this is amazing. i love photorealism, and there's not much of that on this site...i'm so glad they picked you for a DD so i could discover your work all your portraits are awesome, but this one stuck out because of the hair. curly hair is so hard to draw, and you did it very well. great work! +devwatch

Wow, you captured her eyes perfectly here. I like drawing portraits, but seldom fill the page with more than the face. Your great gallery of work has inspired me to try to fill the rest of my pages with darks, lights, clothes, backgrounds, you know, the hard stuff I'm normally too lazy to draw. ^_^ Thanks for inspiring me

heh. nicole. probably australia's best export.

she's beautiful, always. the hair looks fine, wavy or curly hair is always harder to draw. and you made it look so good

her eyes and her mouth are so well done.

That's mad crazy, man...

Detail overload. It looks almost like a photograph, it's so well-executed. Awesome work, here... you should draw a picture of Kirsten Dunst (and I'd worship you forever).
