Work in progression

Hello there! I meant to leave a word a few days earlier, but, when I was here I didn't know what I wanted to type about. I wasn't feeling particularly great about finishing my last exam either. So let's not go there.

I really didn't have any topic in mind today too. I think I'm going through the motions of having a vast amount of free time ahead of me and not quite sure what to fill it with. It'll soon pass... I hope. It's strange, the immense of motivation I possessed to do little projects when I was suppose to be studying. Where's all that motivation gone now? It just goes to show how desperate I am when it comes to distracting myself from revision.

Anywhose. I knew if I didn't post something, this dry spell could last a long time. So what better to show you I haven't abandoned everything and I'm not dead, by gifting you a sneak preview of my next portrait drawing. Can you guess who it is? Probably not, cos it's not very good. It hasn't turned out as well as I was hoping it would. When I first did the eyes, I realised the reference image was more challenging than I initially thought it would be. I have not spent so much time on drawing eyes before. Sketching out the proportions, shading it in, erasing, re-rending, re-rending, re-rendering. I really should have chosen the other prospective image; I had three picked out. Well... four, but the fourth one was just this image but without teeth bearing. I did contemplate giving up on this one and starting, in my mind, the potentially easier image, but, I felt pretty determined to keep going with this drawing and see what comes of it. Who knows, maybe it won't turn out so bad. I must say, the hair looks promising, depsite the fact that it is a pain in the backside; I will try very hard to take my time with it. But all the same, CURSE YOU HAIR!
