I'm going to the London Film & Comic Con on Saturday and am getting an autograph from a certain actor - so I thought I'd try using the new pastels on coloured paper techniques to create something for him to sign. But, dear flisties, does this look enough like him to ask him to sign it?
All concrit gratefully received.

If it is recognisable and not too awful, I'll use this. If it needs tweaking I can have a go. If it's not good enough I'll start again. The colours haven't photographed quite right, this makes it look like there's a lot of white on his face that isn't so glaring on the drawing. (I think/hope).

Over to you guys!

big_heart_june posted a rather lovely gif, which made me want to try out my watercolour pencils. So blame June...and check out the gif because it's yummy.

I do like these Inktense pencils!
Dear artist Flisties - any concrit/tips on how to continue are very welcome!

I might finish this tomorrow, but now I'm off to take Paul to see Despicable Me 3 and get the Minions to make him laugh. The boy needs it. Toodle pip, my darlings.

This is the gif btw

So Redbubble now have graphic t shirt dresses and I had this idea for one - but does it work? Does it look cool or does it look weird?

Be frank!

I'm trying to draw this Barred Owl for my old friend Mal, who is a big fan of owls in general. I know I need to sort out the right eye, but any tips on enhancing the feathers and other details would be gratefully recieved. Also how can I get the darks nice and dark? So far I've used 2B and 6B pencils - I do have up to 9B.
This is the reference pic (this chap takes fantastic bird photos)

I am not sure why I keep trying portraits.... I was vaguely thinking I might give this to Jensen BUT I am not sure about it. Is it a good enough likeness? I can see how I can do a little more with Danneel's hair, but is there anything I can do to improve both faces and get them more correct?

So.
I'm trying to do a dragon Sam and Dean picture and I'm stuck. Can anyone help kick me out of this rut? Here's as far as I've got.


I want to do scales and shit, and I want to sort out Dean's colour because that green just isn't right, and I have no idea what to do with the wings. If you need to see it bigger click though to imgr to magnify it.

Ignore the random red, that's just an underlay, not blood. Yet.

Any advice?
