So this was going to be Hugo Weaving (I picked him to draw because the photo had good lighting, not because I'm some LOTR junkie) but because I was sleepy and stupid, I drew him from a strange angle. I noticed the face I was drawing was looking strange so I picked up the Hugo photo and put it next to my drawing so I could compare it, well, I discovered that I had totally distorted Hugo's proportions. As well, it looks like Dennis Quaid. Rather than ditch the effort I figured I'd embrace the mess up and make it look like some Weaving/Quiad love child. I wanted to draw much more detail but because Dennis Quid attacked my drawing, I got pissed and stopped. Hopefully next time I'll remember to look at my reference photo at the correct angle.

At first Glance, I thought it was Randy Quaid....LOL!

Nah this looks just like the guy that played Agent Smith. Great stuff. Sorry for late comment.

This is amazing, how could you sit at a computer for 6 hrs+ and draw this? I am utterly amazed.

it looks great, wonderful colors and lighting; as to those of you who draw and paint from photos a lot; try real people, and real things,scenes, more often. Photos are great, but they have limitations.You can only draw the picture exactly how iit's shown in the photograph. Real people and objects,& scenery are 3 dimensional, and they are harder to draw, but there is nothing like 3-dimensional REALITY to make you excercise your sight-and-drafting muscles. With 3-dimensional reality, you have to decide how you see the person or object; the lighting,color,sizes, ect.Even the style. This is done for you, often in a photo; not in the real, 3-D object. Before photography, artists had to practice SEEING THE OBJECT right from the start.What are the angles & shapes? What is the composition?How much color, dark, light, or shadow? Proportion? Don't think you can let a photograph decide all that for you, every time. With drawing & painting from reality, you make the choices and judgements, but its well worth the work.

I like the sparseness of the subject against emptiness... you know it's all there, even though it isn't visible.

TaCO (Apr 22, 2005)

Great pic, but I thought you were going to start drawing out your head.

emmamommalag (Apr 22, 2005)

Doesn't need any sharpening.. this is just great as is.

Anna (Apr 22, 2005)

Derrick.. I never said that every drawing from now on was going to be out of my head. FYI: I have not been inspired to draw anything at all. I was just lucky that someone gave me some inspiration the other night to draw this. kthx.

I really like the mood of this piece, really nice detail, and I like how you did the shadowing. Theres a whole lotta people on here that like doing the ocean and palm trees, Its good

Xodiak (Apr 26, 2004)

"From Dusk Till Dawn" is one of the movies Xod really enjoys watching! Very nice sunset! (It is a sunset because my monitor faces the opposite of that direction) >;D

This reminds me of the desert just before it gets very dark and very quiet. You can almost hear your heart beat and then the quietness becomes loud some how. Absolutely beautiful would love a picture of this in a frame.

the sky colors look so real...very lovely!

Take a walk..

Well, I couldn't think of anything to do to make this any different (better, good). I'll try something else.

Miss_DJ (Apr 21, 2005)

I like the home in your head, what's the address? nice colors and placement! welcome!

HunterKiller_ (Apr 21, 2005)

I quite like this piece. The soft colours remind me of some awesome fantasy RPG game... Welcome!

I worked so hard on getting her body that I wasn't able to put more effort into her face. Hope the face doesn't look to out of place.
