More adventures with attempts at art

[fahrseeker]

So I decided to just draw a picutre instead, since that was easier than trying to paint something without black paint or a large canvas. I figured i should show you becasue of all the suggestiosn you gave

I like this in some ways, and in others I don't. She has a ver pretty face, and her upper-body is proportionally correct. However, I think her legs are a little off and her hands are a little on the small side.

Over all, it's a great picture, though -she kind of reminds me of Margot. Lovely job. ^_^

She is margot :D Or rather, I was looking at a picture of margot. But I agree about the hands. I'm afraid I fall prey to that cliché weak spot of so many artits when it comes to hands. I'm proud of the top right quarter of the picture...but everything else..meh.

Well, atleast it wasn't my imagination when I looked at that and thought "Wow, she looks like Margot." Hands are really difficult. It's taken me ages to learn to draw them properly, and even then, that's only in anime, I'm ashamed to say.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who looked at that and said "MARGOT." Well done, and nice choice of model.

Thanks. :P My family were actully surprised the photos I had of here were of someone I knew. She's *very* good at modeling

yes, some of the proportions are off but it is a really good picture, much better than I could hope to do. It's funny: I read the post, and then everyone else's comments, and then the picture itself finally started to load and as soon as I saw the hair and the eyes I was like, "well duh it's Margot." Maybe some hindsight bias, but it is an uncanny likeness, even from a photo.
