Snape WIP art FINISHED! (I think...)

[tripperfunster]

Okay, work, kids and out of town guests have slowed the process down to a snail's pace, but I *think* I finally finished the pic! I'll know for sure tomorrow, after a good break from staring at him.

Here, I've blocked in most of his hair, and now I'm sort of deciding where his collar should begin and end.


I've just picked up the 6b (crumbly piece of shit) and now I get to make all the dark stuff even darker. :D


Half a head with the 6b. You can really see the difference between the 4b and 6b in this shot. Of course, I wasn't trying to make his hair super dark before this. Also, the "Batman" angle always adds interest.


TAADAA! I have to take a better picture, you can see the 'shiny' of my pencil strokes on his hair, but at 1am, I'm not about to turn on all of the lights to get a better shot.

See ya in the morning!! Thanks for following teh process!

That is so cool. I love WIP art posts. You've really only been drawing for two years?

This is amazing. I am always awed at people who draw real to life in pencil, as it's the style I tend towards myself. You are REALLY good.

It's GREAT. You have improved tremendously. Kudos!:D

yup! Well, I guess I faffed around with drawing while in highschool, but that was *cough* 23 years ago *cough*.

I love WIPs too! It's too bad that writers can't really do them. I find the process interesting!

What do you mean 'Rickman!Snape'? Is there another kind?? ;^)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

thanks! I think I tend toward this style by default. I mean, I really don't know any other way to draw! Even when my stuff is crappy, I'm still STRIVING for photorealism.

I actually quite admire people who have an artistic 'style'.

That really came out great! :^D Love it!

I am exactly the same way. Even when I try to draw animated stuff, it turns into realistic. It's not as easy as they make it look.

That turned out SOOooo good ^.^

Yay, I still love his hair and everything else! You go with that 6B, girl! :D
