Description
Gorgeous fantastic amazing Zakk Wylde - who does not know the guitarist of Ozzy Osbourne?Who does not know Black Label Society?!?!?
Who does not know his great songwriting?
I adore him also for his incredible voice and his way to sing... If you ever saw him unplugged you know what I mean.

his position with the guitar reminds me a Faithful Breath's cover (do you know this 70's/80's metal band?)

Awesome man, awesome drawing.
I like the sketchiness on the body + guitar.
And all those details!
Damn. The face is utter brilliance.
.. So is the hair, and the beard.
Ok, I'm done. 
All in all, great job. Keep it up.

I believe this is probably one of my favorite drawings of guitar artists yet. I'm a little bit wary of how the strings further towards the bridge are a bit crooked, but I'm weird about small details like that. I also think that his arm closest to the viewer is just a bit too "linely", I guess I prefer for them to be slightly broken up more. As for the hair, especially the facial hair and expression, I don't think anybody can do it better, it is truly astounding, and I mean that. I love how you payed such close attention to his jacket, shirt, and of course the guitar strap

Hey, thank you! I understand what you mean talking about those little details... There is a reason why I pay more attention to some parts and less to another and why I don't want my pics to be flawless: I decided not to make "photolike" drawings where everything is perfect - therefore I can take a photo (and it's very boring just to copy a photo!). I try to get more expression with a mixture between realism and sketch - so that a part of the drawing happens very spontaneous - I only draw these portraits when I feel very emotional and close to the artist and/or his music... I want to feel the music while drawing and I want my drawing to be as alive as I feel while getting it on the paper
