Very impressive. You can hide a lot with paint, but pencil takes a lot of skill and you've definitely pulled this off.
Congrats on the exhibition, too!

So this is what you look like... very pretty. I agree with the others who said they thought it looked like a photo. I'm especially impressed by the hair... that looks like it would be so difficult to do. @_@ But you got it perfect. That's awesome that it's gonna be on exhibition, too.

Are you kidding me? o_O Wow, I didn't realise it wasn't a photo until I read the description. You really got the features of the face to work together, and it's just enough smooth and sharp.... wah

you really have no idea how much monotony this was at the end. I was walking out of the room, stopping myself, and thinking "crap, I have to go back and finish it." then I went back to work. d:
