Creepily realistic! It is really well done, you must have put a lot of effort into this. It payed off ^-^.

Thank you! I put a good 8 hours as I remember, into it. I could do the same in a much shorter time now. It has been a while since I made a nice drawing on something other than sketchbook paper. Easier to get dark lines on something other than the sketchbook. The hard surface is easier to draw on than the padded one. xD

I found that it doesn't take me as long to do pictures anymore, either. I agree, i usually just use computer paper, even though i have a jazillion half filled sketch books all over the place .

It's really cool. Nice work!
But, as someone already pointed out, the distance between the nose and the mouth is way too long. xD
This guy must have looked awesome when alive...

I wish I could draw stuff like this. D:

I tried to distort it a little for the "grotesque" look but that failed. lol

That wasn't a quick little sketch XD
Thanks

I was thinking about a background but I thought that the way it was posed, that it would be better not to on this one
My 6B broke doing this one XD that was one of my favorites, rest in peace yadda yadda
art store to the rescue!
Thanks for the comment

I like it. You put a lot of texture on the teeth which I think is the best part of the drawing. It is very good for a shot (first? or so?) at realism. keep it up!

I haven't done realism this extensive before, so yeah it is sorta a first shot
there was once in a 7th grade art class but it sucked
Thank you for the comment
