This is very nicely drawn. It has good shading, and great detail. I particularly like how you drew her eyes. The light on one side of her face and the darkness on the other is a very good touch, and helps with the realism. You have a lot of talent with a pencil. I think this is a great deviation.

Yeah I know. I'm thinking about taking it out of the frame and taking it somewhere to have it scanned professionally. If I can't represent it on the web correctly then it may not be worth having it on the web at all.

Hi
I like it
I love the nose I think it looks really pretty ... But no offense but I'm not really sure it looks like Adriana.
The only peace of advise I can give is that the imperfections in a portrait are what make it special and pretty for example (from someone who has drawn Adriana Lima 50ish times) she has a wee spot on her chin or the bags under her eyes ... I haven't seen the ref but I think adding those sort of things would improve it soooo much.
Don't just try and copy what you see try to recreate it ... try to capture her, personally I think you should be able to look at a portrait and recognize who it is instantly.
I'm sorry for such a long comment I hope it helps and I hope I haven't just sounded like a big headed ass hole because my pics are deffinatly not perfect its just I would have liked to know this stuff when I was starting.
By the way I could have never draw anything like that traditionally KEEP IT UP
The bottom line is I really like it its just you an do better!

Thank you. I appreciate the critique. Its definately something I will think about on my next drawing.
The reference I used was from one of her VS adds and the picture was really touched up a lot. I actually had to add detail to the hair, lips, and eyes.
But the wee things I wasnt thinking about. But I will be next time.
Thanks again.
RAISE
