Description Finally! It's done!

I'm so proud of myself!

Ok, sorry if this took a while. I know you guys have been fed up with looking at the last two WIPs, and hopefully, this'll be worth the long wait

BTW, if you look at my earliest ones, you could see how my progression is going. Honestly, I think I'm doing a lot better than I was last year. I'm pretty sure with a little more practice I'll be able to show something that's eye-catching and will BLOW YOUR MIND!!...... but that'll be in the future

Hope you all like it!

Pencils: H, 2B, 9B, 4B, F, HB, 7B, 0.5 mechanical pencil
Tools: tissue, hard cut erasers, kneaded eraser, tortillions
Time: About as much as my Johnny Depp which took about 25 hours
Reference: [link]

BTW... I just noticed that I wrote 7/13/10 instead of the correct date 6/13/10. My bad...

Yeah, I saw that it came out slightly lighter than I wanted it to be, but I got lazy and just decided to put it up already. Anyway, I still think it came out well XP. Thanks so much for the fave, comment, and WATCH! And I love your icon!! FFXIII and FFXIII Versus is awesome! Where'd you get it?

you're very welcome, how long have you been drawing?

AERuvalcaba In reply to myboom69 [2010-06-23 15:52:27 +0000 UTC]

Well, let's see... I've been drawing and doodling since I was really little–probably since I was born. I got into anime and I started designing my own characters, drawing them over and over again in different styles to find which I liked best (I still haven't found my style ), but then I found this site and got inspired to draw Realism portraits about around the beginning of January of 2009. I started getting better after I practiced, and from all the drawing, I've come to write my own stories. A few of those stories have been inspired by some of the magnificent artworks here on deviantart.

So, I guess you could say I've had a lot of practice with just drawing. But with this kind of stuff? I'd say about a year. If you have any more questions, I'll be more than happy to answer them, in case I went on rambling like I usually do XD!

Thank you for your kind words! It's so great to hear that. I in fact got some bad news earlier that my work wasn't accepted into one of the groups I submitted it to, but I'm sure with a little more practice, I'll be able to get something in. Thank you again! This really cheered me up!
