Excellent! What medium are you using for these? The attention to detail and shading makes them very photo real. I'm impressed!

I agree with jeroentje ... more more more!:bounce:

thanks for your comment....i use graphite on matt board....i used photophop on the background a small bit to even out the grain of the paper after the image was scanned ....i should have just left it alone,... but it looks better when printed out for my portfolio...
nothing was done to the head its self.

Thanks danjdob. :blush:

I can't believe that no one else has commented on this ... but don't let that discourage you. It is fabulous work. Post some more. I'd like to see some of your other stuff. Got anything that's not a portrait?

lol....this sooooo good for my ego.....thanks everyone for all your comments.......... here is another drawing i did for a project"when i was at school" "still life with cracked ostritch egg and nautalis shell"...this was kinda fun to do...all the objects had so much color i wanted to use colored pencil but i think the plain graphite has a sort of sleek feel to it....would have liked to spent more time on the glass (its really hard to get to look just right) but i ran out of time and rushed it a bit....this took about two nights to finnish...(i work best late a night)....one of these days soon i'll have an online portfolio...i dont know anything about web design ...i have a friend who is going to help me out when they have the time...
