Description EDIT: Thank you so much for all the favourites, comments and views! C:








At the time, I felt this picture just wasn't working. At all! Some bits were too dark, others too light... then the background decided to get all smudgy and annoying despite my best efforts to keep it smooth. As for his ear... I made it up, as I couldn't see it properly in the ref pic.

Baaaaasically, ( ) what I'm trying to say is, I've found this drawing extremely frustrating, nay, impossible to complete.

But that isn't the subject's fault. It's David Garrett! A very amazing violinist. If you don't believe me, go listen to his music. Goooooo.

Pleeeeease don't dare critique, I may have to stab you if you do. ;D I mean that in the nicest way. Thanks.

EDIT:
I'm a bit happier with the drawing after leaving it for a while. Thanks for all your nice comments and favs!

Now to promote him some :

I do agree with Guen, neck needs more shading and the mouth needs work but otherwise I think it is flawless. He is such an awesome man to draw

Thanks. You should draw him too. May as well practice on a person you like, right?

Personally I think he's rather strange looking. But I'm glad you like this drawing so much.

Haha, I know that. I was just observing that a lot of the comments on this are by you. Which is awesome, thank you. Too many viewers are silent, I think. Ah, what can I say? Mouths are my Achilles' heel.

Wait a lot of them are by me? And I was the only one who said something about the mouth.......It can do teeth, noses, and mouths, frankely I can't draw people that well......

S-y-c In reply to SmokeyZoro [2012-02-13 11:42:06 +0000 UTC]

Yep. Well, Guen mentioned something about me needing to shade the neck a bit more, which I agree with. You are right about the mouth - it does look a little weird. Something to improve in the future, eh?

Practice makes perfect... or thereabouts.

Thank you. ^_^ I don't think it took me a very long time to draw him. About 15 hours I'd guess.

We are our own worst critics dear, because we have seen the process of the project and know the thoughts we have had in the process of its completion.

What I am trying to say is that this is amazing! I love how you were able to convey the emotion of the moment and his love for music in this. Emotion is not an easy thing to draw and you nailed it.

S-y-c In reply to mandaren [2011-04-16 16:53:40 +0000 UTC]

I think you're right, my dear. Definitely looking at it now that I've forgotten much of what frustrated me about it, it looks much better to me.

Thank you! I'm so happy to hear you say that because one of the things I was struggling with was to get the emotion and his love for music across in this drawing. So thanks.

David Garrett!

Amazing man, indeed. He has a British accent AND speaks fluent German. *le sigh...*

I would like to congratulate you on his hair -- especially the stubble! It looks great! Good job!

S-y-c In reply to Kaffiene [2011-02-01 09:01:48 +0000 UTC]

YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?? Not many people do. :0

Yeah, whatup with the British accent? Isn't he German-American? XD Either way, it's awesome.

Thank you! The hair was so difficult! As for the stubble... I am never drawing stubble again... well, not for a very long time.

Kaffiene In reply to S-y-c [2011-02-03 23:42:09 +0000 UTC]

I only know of him because Barnes & Noble was playing his "Smooth Criminal" one day. I couldn't get the awesomeness out of my head and scurried over to Amazon to get the CD.

I think he's British. I think... Anyway, I remember being jealous that he wasn't American.
