Jimex Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Had some spare time over Christmas so decided to practise a bit of drawing. Portraits are my weakest point so decided to draw, of all things, a girl from college. All done with a cheap ball point pen I found on the breakfast bar. Quite fun shading with a pen but can take a while!

Mainland Marauder Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Pretty nice for doing that only with a ballpoint pen. I couldn't shade with a pen like that to save my life.

rhyn Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Pretty good man, I love drawing with ballpoints personally. The eyes may be a bit too big though and the shading is a bit heavy around the left side of the nose but that happens sometimes when using pens. Just keep it up, you should be savage in no time!

Stefan. Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 That's awesome mate, well done. I, like many others, am sh*t at drawing using a ball-point pen (not sure about others, but I use pencil) but that's a mighty fine effort.

Yeh I agree about overshading it a little, but like you say once its done you can't go back with pen Cheers for the c&c fellas.
