Artist's Comments

I tried to draw Deepika Padukone, an Indian model/actress.

The scan didn't turn out too great, though.

You have an interesting trend going with your naming of drawings...maybe your usename should have been something like 'the attempter'? =P

What sort of paper are you drawing on? It looks rather shiny, which makes it harder to do shading. Nice thick paper is better :)

There's something a little strange about the hair and the neck. Not sure what it is. The neck looks a little thin, but I suspect that's because the hair is covering part of it?

Don't know if you've ever tried drawing with a grid - that can be quite helpful too.

Yeah, the hair was covering the neck, but I don't think it came out that great in my drawing.

As for the shiny-ness (??), I did use thick paper, but the spiral that binds my sketchbook prevents the paper from getting too close to the scanner, so it looks retarded. But I like having all my stuff in one place.

Thanks for commenting! (I feel like this message should end with a 'Do come again!' said in an exaggerated fob accent...)

oh, right. So that's why...How close did you draw to the spiral? If it's not too close, you could sort of let the spine hang off the edge of the scanner...?

hahhah don't worry I will come again (is an asian fob accent needed here?) 'I'm watching you...' =D

Great picture. I liked it loads. Only thing is that I think the left eye needs working on.
