Description I was overdue for a portrait pic! XD

Shush. I like drawing Cillian. He's just so interesting to draw! Cough.
Plus this picture reminds me of MY Cillian so much. That may be to do with the fact that... I based him from Cillian... but hey! I'm digging myself a hole here! Moving swiftly on~!

Pencils, mostly 5B - 9B and some 6H. My scanner really hates scanning pencil. T_T

Ref photo used.

Full view advised! Thumb and small image look crappy. XD

This is ...astonishing! The details, the shading. And the hands, golly, what would I give to do hands like that... Oh, and I love the eyes. This is so realistic. Fantastic work.
About how long did it take you to draw this portrait?

Only 3 or 4? Shoot, I'd give up after 2, but that's cause I have NO patience in drawing. You did a fantastic job!

You're welcome

This looks wonderful, but the eyes are bugging me. The lid on the left is -huge- compared to the one on the right, and it's making him look like he's giving me that 0.- look without moving his eyebrow. That, or he got punched in the face. Xd

I friggen' love Cillian! This piece is so beautiful. I see drawn portraits of him all the time but most people seem to slaughter his image. You, however, have not (fortunately). !

Has his nose always looked that? Huh.

Anyway, the shading is darling.

Whats with the scoreboard? Man I'm behind XD

I think this is just, wow. The texture, I adore how you did his hands *_* Figured you'd draw a pic like this. The shading is great

Tetras [2006-09-22 21:34:03 +0000 UTC]

The eyes don't look as alive as your other drawings, they're really flat, like they're painted on his eyelids.

redderz In reply to Tetras [2006-09-22 22:25:32 +0000 UTC]

The whites of his eyes on the pic were really flat, so I just made them the same. XD I knew something was wrong with his eyes though.

Tetras In reply to redderz [2006-09-23 10:17:14 +0000 UTC]

Eyes are harder in pencil, you don't have room to make so many mistakes because you're left with faded whites after a while. I can't do them either P=

patchworkangel [2006-09-22 16:56:28 +0000 UTC]

Gorgeous. I love how you show all of the imperfections and details and you obviously weren't as scared of the hands as many people tend to be. And the whisps of hair are awesome, a touch of realism a lot of people seem to forget.

Ah, you make me want to pick up pencil drawing again and I have no time.
