This is absolutely bloody gorgeous. I mean, sure, it helps to have such a model, but not everyone could do those cheekbones justice and you most definitely have. Wow. Um, is it so wrong that I want to pet his hair? And the eyes... *swoon* Amazing. Really, just amazing.

I can't believe I haven't commented on this one yet! I added it as a fave and every time it shows up on my page I think 'wow, this one is truly gorgeous!'. I can't tell what it is exactly, but you have an amazing touch! The drawing is very clean yet extremely detailed. You made him look younger, which also makes him cuter. The hair is absolutely stunning! And so are the eyes. I still can't put my finger on it, but there's something about this drawing that makes it so beautiful I can't possibly describe it in words.

Stunning, just stunning!

This is an awesome drawing, excellent job on the details!! Don't worry about making it look exactly like the photo, it's okay to put some of your own style in as well. I love this so
I've been wanting to do a Franz Ferdinand drawing for a while now, just need to actually get something done, lol.

Very well done, for sure

I love your pencilwork. I like how the minimalist shading lets you really appreciate the beautiful structure of his face, and the way you did the hair is really just... incredible! Also, I think I'm in love with his hand... Wonderful work!

Dude, the hair... the hair!!! You're amazing. I think you should draw more real people. But your hair looks good on everyone, 2-D or otherwise! Oooh, I know... go see Howl's Moving Castle and then draw me Howl (once you manage to stop drooling, of course)! You could do great things with both his wings and his hair. Mmmmmm.

Amazing job! I love the texture that you've achieved in this one, particularly his hair. Nice job on that ear, too; they can be nasty little buggers when being drawn. XD

you can. anyone can.. really. It's just copying a photo. If i would have come up with the pose myself out of my imagination.. THAT would have been remarkable.

But it takes a lot of time and patience. You should always do a sketch or two and tweek along the way before commiting to a final piece. Trust me.

Lightboxes = love.
