Just a doodle of someone I don't know. Ref: http://www.feebonics.org/images/portrait_ref.jpg. I was chatting with Marcello about Lascaux while drawing it, so I didn't spend quite that much time on it.Like the William Dafoe one which turned into some dark warrior elf thing, I didn't bother so much to draw the person in the picture (though I was a little less sloppy this time). Halfway through the picture, I started seeing some resemblance to Connie Nielsen, so while I wasn't deliberately trying to make it look like her, I did start thinking about her halfway through the drawing and that probably had some influence. I didn't deliberately try to change much this time. The only place I consciously and deliberately changed was the neck area (I really like long necks). The rest is just inaccurate. The upper half of her head and her eyes bother me a bit, but I started rendering the details in those places too early and it'd be a pain to change them now. The line work is pretty bad. I'm really uncoordinated with my graphics tablet. The picture frame was a challenge, and maybe I should remove it. I just wanted to try making rounded corners with a fillet style effect, so I drew four circles and just drew tangent lines with the line tool. To make the lines look smooth, I used a thicker stroke with lighter opacity first rather than using antialiasing.

She looks younger in this revision, for some reason. Maybe the cross-hatching gave the illusion of wrinkles. I think you did an awesome job...
I feel like doing hatching/cross-hatching on women is tricky since it doesn't just create tone, but also creates texture, and that texture tends to create a look of aging on women. I find men a lot easier to draw with that being one of the main reasons (that I can be a bit rougher and create more texture without affecting the look as much). Also there tend to be more landmarks on men to guide proportions (at least I seem to know the landmarks better on men) whereas women tend to be smoother with fewer prominent marks. Anyway, I always found women to be a whole lot harder to draw without becoming really frustrated.
We women have always been frustrating hmmm? *giggle*
you did a wonderful job with this dear I really enjoy looking at this<3
I understand how you feel on using tablets. The drawings I do on the computer always look so much worse then the ones I do on paper.
