Hey oh the orchid, to be honest I did not find the time yet to show it to her, it has to wait since we are still on or way and I did not carry my stuff with me. The journeys were great! Tomorrow one last trip to France
Next week I will work on Robert and hopefully will finish the drawing

Anthony-Woods In reply to M--Art [2009-08-20 18:10:29 +0000 UTC]
Ahh yea i know the feeling with the mental blocks! Probably a good idea to come back to it, it hard when you have a poor reference too!

If I were you I'd use the slightly harder 2b to create individual strands and then smooth them over with the blending stumps...
But I'm by no means an expert!^^'
It looks good!

Cheers mate maybe i should use my mec 2b and blend as you suggest

Hey! looks very good already! about the hair.. i would be great to see some single hair that way the strands wouldn't look so seperated. I usually cut a piece from an eraser and use the sharp edges to erase single hairs . If you know what I mean!
anyhow, I love how you did the shading and everthing! Totally looks like her! good luck with the hair!
