Description After spending so many hours on my last drawing, I felt like doing something a little less time-consuming - so I set myself a challenge this morning: I would try to finish a new drawing in one day. The perfectionist in me couldn't handle doing a quick-and-dirty portrait (I officially suck at quick-and-dirty drawings - I'm way too obsessed with details to pull them off), so I figured I'd do another eye drawing. I had to rush a few things (to the great dismay of my perfectionist alter ego) because I really wanted to finish it, so it's definitely not perfect. However, I'm quite happy with the way it turned out.

Oh and one more thing. More of a tip really.

I think you could try to adjust the contrast so that the darkest blacks of the drawing really come on screen as black. It would really make it look even better!

Cerzus69 In reply to ??? [2010-05-13 19:01:10 +0000 UTC]

I SO know what you mean! I've got the same thing in my head and since it's part of my personality I kinda have to like it and I do, but sometimes being too much of a perfectionist really takes up a lot of time when drawing, and the longer I'm drawing in one sitting the more details I start to see and HAVE to put into it.

But I honestly don't miss any detail here, it's beautiful. Good job!
