Description

This was based off a black and white shot of Charlize Theron, though I swear it came out looking a lot more like Kate Beckinsale.

Hair was free-styled, background as well. She had a skirt on I didn't really care for, so I edited it out. lol, she's not bottomless, it would just be out of shot, I'm not that kind of artist :p

Just makes me feel good, desired, wanted, also makes me feel like I am on vacation, something I am in desperate need for, ha.

I do love the orange sweater, you don't see orange hardly ever, and what you do see is the flaming neon hunter orange on wool, ha.

I'm trying to get away from needing any sort of resource, but expression is a PITA to do without a reminder, ha, but that's the plan at least!


This was a "quicky" about 18.5 Hours *as apose to my normal 50 or so*

Please take a look at the original to see the difference. ^_^

Original photo by: Oh I have absolutely no clue at this point, but I'm working on it :)

Amazing piece. The texture you achieved on the cloth is nothing short of brilliant. +8/8

Really greatly done. Not as good as Allison Something though in the execution (her hair, more precisely), but better in efforts to make it different from the original picture. Congrats

Nice work:)

I really like how you've rendered the fabric

Her hair looks a bit cluttered and could use
some more individual hairstraints

Good work + 8

Good work! love the orange sweater too :) Her pose is great
The hair is allready mentioned, but it's really good how you try to draw without a resource, and make it a whole different picture than the original.
Her right arm seems a bit weird to me, but on the ref. picture too, so :p

i really love the colour tone and values. and as usual its showing your exceptional skill with pencils that we've had the honor of seeing in the drawing forums.

the only real gripe i have is the musculature of the legs which come off as more tube like rather than having a level of muscular definition.
