Here's another sketch... this time took me 2 hrs tho... the hair...
Slightly altered my drawing style a little... hope it looks better... though essentially same pose and angle as the previous image, but with heavy modification (not traced over tho)
Finished viewing some of your works. I must say that I'm really impressed with it.
I liked your strong sense of color gradients and lighting effects, the sketch is drawn really smooth, you really have excellent elaborate sketching skills, luv it!
I'm not really skilled at drawing, I'm just having fun by playing on the lines, the shadings, adding some rhythm and pressence into it with pencil. Haven't mastered drawing and editing with softwares like SAI and Photoshops though.
Have a tablet, but rarely uses it because it really sucks for doing the outlines, I might as well sketch it first on the paper then copied it =)
