Description This is a drawing to honour the band Bring Me the Horizon and their song and album Suicide Season.

I think the drawing speaks for itself. But even so i would love to hear your thoughts about it!

The boring stuff:
Pencils - 2H and Mechanical HB, 2B
Paper - A4 drawing sketch paper kind of
Time - yesterday evening and today morning, 5 hours?

Thank you for your time!

I just love the shading of her face in this! It's very striking and drew me immediately into the picture! The rest of the lines just flow very nicely

Yes, shading is always a challenge but you seem to be on the right path.

You're probably tired of hearing this, but practice really is the best learning tool an artist can have at any stage.

At least you are aware of it. There are some artists on DA who, sadly, are not.

WOW!
that's one of your best! The shadings are great but I think the shades between the fingers are a bit too broad... I'm just stunning! Don't know how to describe but it makes me a little bit of nostalgic/longing for calm... It's just amazing!

You did a great job and you become better and better with each drawing!

ErikBjornor In reply to muffinmarmelade [2010-02-22 15:42:10 +0000 UTC]

Well thank you really made me glad to hear that! I was under the impression that others don't like it as much as i do. In fact, it was just a simple picture from the beginning (i drew from the reference of a perfume advertisement) but then i changed my mind and drew the background, chose the name and wrote the poem. Last of all i saw that it fitted perfectly to Bring Me The Horizon

muffinmarmelade In reply to ErikBjornor [2010-02-22 16:38:05 +0000 UTC]

the background perfectly fits - it gives the drawing a story or tale and everybody sees an own tale. I it

ErikBjornor In reply to RobertPrinsen [2010-02-21 16:05:02 +0000 UTC]

Yes, perhaps. I had big problems with the mouth's proportions on this :S though in the end i got the expression i was looking for

Thank you

RobertPrinsen In reply to ErikBjornor [2010-02-21 16:11:05 +0000 UTC]

okay that's more important, the expression.,. cuz that's the part that speaks bookparts

we people dont only see a smile, but a complete expression which can say many different things with a smile

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ErikBjornor In reply to RobertPrinsen [2010-02-21 16:32:37 +0000 UTC]

yes, the eyes in combination with the mouth are making the expression i think. You can have an evil smile or a laughing smile with different eyes but same mouth expression. The same is true reverse, for the eyes i mean of course.

RobertPrinsen In reply to ErikBjornor [2010-02-21 17:55:37 +0000 UTC]

indeed. it's mostly i think in the eyes, which say what smile you are expressing
