Busted! Yep, it's a part of the face that I'm particularly partial to. If you read up on it, it's a very interesting little dent--can indicate infertility and other health issues but I think this is my favorite thing about it...

In Jewish mythology, an angel strikes a newborn on the upper lip right before birth to create the philtrum, so he forgets all he saw and knew as a soul.

When I drew this face I kept asking myself "Is this a compassionate face or the face of a corrupt man?" I'm thinkin' the corrupt side won out. Honestly, I thought the thing people would notice first would be that awesome comb-over. '-)

That's interesting! Honestly everything about this guy besides his little dent kinda freaks me out.

Fantastic portrait.

I am an infant when it comes to my drawings... I am also brand new on this site, but I was browsing around and came upon this drawing and I have to say, I really found myself drawn to him... I love his blue eyes. ( I always notice peoples eyes before anything else)! I didn't even notice the "comb over" you mentioned! but what really made me like him was his eyebrows!

You are an extremely talented artist. One, you obviously have all of the proportions correct and all of the fundamentals down pat... But mainly because you have the ability to give them life. You bring out emotion in the people you draw and I truly admire that in an artist! I've enjoyed looking at your art and will continue to study it as I search for my own style.

Sometimes, when it's cold and rainy outside, my tablet wakes up.

How about this idea?
Memo: Marcello, I'll give you $20 to put this piece of crap in the showcase.
RE: Hmmm... It's gonna take at least $40 for that piece of crap.
Memo: $40? Damn... OK. Paypal?
RE: Paypal will be fine. I'll have it in the showcase tomorrow.
Memo: Cool! Thanks, man.

TheCrimsonKing (Jun 27, 2012)

Fuck, I knew I should have low balled him starting at $20.

I like Staci's idea, something more like Daily Deviations would be cool. The whole 'like and dislike button system' seems like it would be counterproductive because it allows people to judge anonymously and without explanation, making the showcase purely a popularity contest (opposed to a place to display the sites more skillful or innovative or interesting digital art). And yes, judging things like this would be subjective but could be relatively objective if there was some loose criteria to be met that we all agreed on (I mean, don't most prominent and respected award systems work in such a way?).

TheCrimsonKing (Nov 26, 2012)

Thinking about it now I think there are pretty solid reasons a lot of pieces were showcases like this one. There was a collective evolution of skill as 2draw developed from when I joined in 2004. There seemed to be a point where the bar was raised weekly for a few years and then we got to now where it has kind of gone stagnant. We are left to look at the current content as a whole and maybe a lot doesn't fit, but when it was showcased it was amazing, inspiring, or whatever at the time it as created.
