I swear, I thought it was a photo when I clicked the thumbnail... When I realised that it was a drawing - well, I nearly fell off my chair.
So, I just wanted to express my amazement over such a marvellous and detailed piece. You are a role model for all the other artists out here.
Did you use a real skull as a model, or simply a lot of pictures? If you used a real skull, you don't happen to know its ethnic origin?

Wow, thanks for the comment! I'm flattered! Unfortunately I didn't have a real skull to use as a model, but my photos were from The Bone Room - [link] - the skull is listed as Male from China.

You are very much welcome, and thank you. I just thought that because of the color shifts and the texture you had given the surface of the skull, you must have had a real model. How fooled was I not? Still, a mervellous piece. Perhaps more now that ever before.

Wow. This is incredible! I love the detailed realism -- you must have had a model that wasn't plastic, a skull from a museum or something, right? Wow.
I like the Polychromos too, they have a different slightly harder texture than Prismacolors and mix well with them. Oh the joy of nonduplicate colours... hehehe...

I want to draw like you when I grow up. Since I am 57 that should be any day now. Great work.

O_O <- was my first reaction. Still is.
I absolutely love the colouring. How long did this take you?

Thank you! I'm not exactly sure how long it took, but I'd say probably over 10 hours or so...

That's kinda long.. ^-^" Or perhaps not.. it was on A3, after all. But however you put it, your efforts paid off if you ask me. ^-~

Yeah it's quite a big picture, even the black background took a while to colour in... the teeth were really time consuming as well.
