Artist's Comments

after about 30 hours... this is how it looks like...

i love how this portrait depicts every human emotion - pain and anguish, hopelessness, exhaustion from hunger and thirst... all human suffering
----------------------------------
medium: pencil WITHOUT the aid of brush this time
duration: 25 hours so far
dimension: when finished - A4

this is about 95% done but i think its beautiful enough to upload it on the internet... after scanning i noticed the shade in the neck is insufficient, so as the shirt... i have to smoothen some strokes coz its still visible in close up... im really proud of this one... its quite scary to use a different type of paper from the usual coz i thought it'll be very hard for me to use the eraser... and yeah just as i thought its much harder to use a mechanical pencil as far as my technique in making shades for the hair is concern... yet im happy with this one... great expression... i actually feel sad when im looking at his eyes

It certainly looks beautiful. Are you looking for final crit for touching up the last bits, or are you satisfied with it as is?
