"I like baseball, movies, good clothes, whiskey, fast cars... and you. What else you need to know?"Johnny Depp as John Dillinger in "Public Enemies" [2009]
Not really proud of this one. Struggled to finish it alltogether. I know "Johnny Depp is one of the most difficult people to get right" is an utterly crappy excuse, but he just is, for me at least (although, the pictures I've seen people draw of him, every 1/20 manages to capture his character exactly right)
Pinstripes didn't make it to my list of favourite things to draw either. How unfortunate. And I will not use 9B for a black background any more. It makes the picture un-viewable in real life.
I really loved "Public enemies". Perfect. And I've got one more things I want to draw from that movie, just need a good screenshot of it

Nice work. I know exactly what you mean about the pinstripes. I really hate to draw or paint them. How did you manage to get a good scan of this drawing? Whenever I try to scan something I did with 6B or softer I only get some nasty reflections but nothing that looks like black.

Oh my scanner is poor but I think I got it okay with post-processing in Photoshop
and thanks!

You did a good job with Photoshop. I still hope that someone finds a technique to photograph or scan drawings so that they look good without any post-processing.
And you're welcome!

the lens on my right is vastly smaller than the one on the left. I personally think you did a fantastic job of capturing the 'deppness' of Johnny

Hahaha, be proud, dammit! I personally don't think he's all that difficult to draw, but I've had a lot of practice, and you need that in order to make perfect...which Depp is 
Yes, pinstripes are a bitch, but when done well, as they are here, they really add to the drawing. Awesome job!

I really want to say something nice and witty here, but ~N0rks showed me a picture of his naked butt earlier and I'm slightly distracted now. 
I think it's wonderful.

This is fantastic. I think you did well capturing him. I've never seen the movie and I was able to tell who it was. I also think you did well on the pinstripes too.
