Description

Part of my "Silver Screen Legends" series. The scan of this sketch came out horrible, so I did some very minor touch up and adjustments digitally. Next I have to smooth things out and color this digitally (and yes, I'm aware of the odd finger thing going on, but as I said it's a WIP)

medium: Derwent pencil
reference : photo by George Hurrell

Thank you, alebrije! Still far from complete, but thank you for the kind words.

To the rest of the viewers: Could you do me a favor? Rate my work? Love it or Hate it, But PLEASE at least Rate It! Even if you felt like giving this a vote rating of 1, it makes more sense than looking at the piece and then not leaving anything, right? I prefer comments, but if you don't want to leave a comment please at least leave a vote rating, okay?

Thanks for reading (or perhaps ignoring) my rants.

the face looks very good as does the overall compo

the fingers on the other hand need a lot more work. you could get some black in it too, adjusting the levels and contrast for example

and also, although you've mentioned the reference existing, you need to post a link to the image itself

Well done on the details of her face, I think her hand looks a bit odd, but then you mentioned you are still working on it

Keep up the nice work

Excellent work.
The nose and the lips are perfect!
I agree with Cigaro about the fingers, they need more work.
The eyes are beautiful, but the lower part of her face is better than the upper part, and it creates some sort of feeling that you didn't spent the same amount of work on those parts...
Still it a great drawing, you got some serious skills man

cigaro - Thanks, yes I had already planned to do all of that, but since I plan to paint this digitally, I simply did slight or minor adjustments to the horrid scan to make things a bit more presentable. As for the reference photo, it can be found in the video link. Thanks for commenting

Maidith - Thank you. Still a WIP though.

eshine - Thanks and yes this is still a WIP.

Madanapale - Thanks Madanapale,. It'll be better once I finish.

JUSTINas - Thank you!

She was beautiful, wasn't she?

Valera - Yeah, this isn't really intended to be a completed piece actually, just the basis for my digital painting. Thanks.

Very nice work. You showed up her face very well. The balanced toning fits a lot with her expression. Well done!
