I hate you I totally failed when I tried to draw this. It's well good. I'm going to watch you now, so i can keep a close eye on you. One who can draw and succeed in trivia must have some sorta powers and must be observed very closely...

Ohh, good question. I did it like a year or two ago so I can't be very exact, and I stopped working on it for christmas or summer vacation or something when I left it. If I had to guess, i'd say somewhere between 10-15 hours all together.

yup, I would've written Neil young, but I don't think it would mean the same if people didn't know he quoted it in his suicide note.

hey how u do the hair man? did u use pencil for everything? did u rub off the white parts after shading?

control In reply to aaronwty [2005-02-17 18:40:41 +0000 UTC]

yup, pencil for everything. I kinda shaded around the white parts and erased parts of it because I smudged some dirt into it.

darthvaderette [2004-12-05 01:06:48 +0000 UTC]

I just saw the top of the head and the title of this portrait and knew it was Kurt.
I originally checked your profile because I saw your Chris Cornell drawing and knew that anyone who liked Soundgarden would definitely at least know of Kurt ^___^ *applauds own brilliance*

You're fantastic at it...hundreds of people must've told you already, but you're a brilliant artist. And this one is truly awesome...*faves* kudos, dude. Grunge is dead but Kurt lives.

this is an amazing picture of Kurt its in the eyes so bright at first glance and yet so dead. so deep that you cant seem to see past the surface. positively incredible.

again - brilliant!! - poor kurt was simply fucked up - you've captured that despair - i'm actually coming to the decision that you are one of those amazingly talented people that can capture whatever it is that makes someone ... them - i think i'll have to watch you....

A great piece, and even better artist comments. Its never better. Glad to meet someone who dosent look at Kurt as a martyr for once. If you get a chance, visit my page and check out my gallery. There you will find a piece about Kurt called "God or Garbage, No In Betweens". See what you think. Again, many commendations on excellent work and a clear mind.

I don't know how you did what you did with that hair, but it is sublime. Looks exactly like the original (I have that shot on my wall)
