    Last Showcase of the Year

    Well, school is finally over, and as alot of you know I showcase my artwork that I've done over the semester. This time around, I made quite an improvement on doing portraits, which was the focus of the class, although my main goal was to make hair look more realistic, along with better proportioning, as that was one of my weaker points. Enjoy .^_^.


    The semester started out with some nude models, i thought this one was particularly well done in the structural sense, and because it was done in exactly 7 minutes.


    My sad excuse of a Johnny Depp, theres alot of things wrong with this one, but at this point, I'm still trying to figure things out on my own. approx. 2.5 hours to draw



    This is more of a test picture more than anything, just to work with hair and how it should flow. approx. 35mins to draw



    Various sketches for eye shading approx. 25mins each






    And now for my Final for the class, we had to draw the dreaded self portrait, using nothing more than a mirror, so no pictures to look at. This is one of my best pieces to date, simply because of the vast amount of time spent on making it as true-to-life as i could, I spent just under a month working on this, with 30+ hours on it, I believe it was time well spent. I even took it to Kinko's and had copies made lol, just in case the original is ever damaged.



    I have alot of other doodles and sketches in-between, but I thought these were the better ones I suppose, and for those of you who haven't seen my other pieces, check out these


    feedback is appreciated ^_^

      Wow. Those are absolutely amazing. My favorites are #2 and #5 with the last one being my favorite. I really like how you have yourself looking away, and there's just something about it. You can draw eyes very well too, and I really like the girl's eye in the 4th drawing.

      Nice Work. Keep it up!

          The last one is the best by far.

          You are an awesome artist.

            Well done.

            I used to be able to draw really well, but that died.

            I like the self-portrait the best.

              There all amazing but I think the last one is leagues ahead of the rest. That last picture is like photo quality. PHOTO QUALITY. It's insane.

                You're really good at drawing faces. I've always been bad at that.

                The last one is pretty incredible. Props for that; the facial portion looks real, with the eye being especially impressive.

                Johnny is impressive too. You really screwed up the nose, the lips and the right side of his face XD but the detail in the picture is really great, I am again impressed by the eyes. I see potential in this picture.

                Keep up the good work

                            I know I screwed him up lol, I was in a hurry to get it done before the end of the class, but at least you can somewhat tell it's Johnny Depp =/
                            and it was on lower quality paper, I tend not to care as much about mistakes when it's on crappy paper.

                              You rawk much sawks, Jamie. I pay absolutely no attention to detail (and I absolutely fail at it). My opinion, you drawl much better than I and that's quite obvious to see

                              All of the pieces look outstanding and your capability to capture details in an efficient manner is just wow. Good job, but why stop here...? I think I speak for all when I say we want moar plz.
