That doesn't particlarly look like a pencil portrait. It looks like you've taken a photo, desaturated it and lowered the contrast. :shrug:

i sure hope you're not questioning me. meh, i'll just look at the positive side and take that as a compliment. (if you look at the original you'd see the differences)

the other comment was kind of mean, so i thought i would make a comment.... when first saw it i was amazed that it was done in pencil... you did a good job on it

I agree that it looks like a desaturated photo, but I can tell by your other pieces that you are a good artist and you would be capable of doing a good photo realistic portrait, so you wouldn't really have a reason to rip of a photo. One good way to show people that its your own work is to post work in progress pictures, proving that its a drawing. You may gather more suspicion otherwise. Just something to remember for the future!

I've seen drawings that have been confused for photos before, as in up-close and shit. Hell, I even did this one of Alice Cooper that some people in an old art class thought was an edited photo that I printed out -- until they saw it up close (must scan that fucker...).

This one is definately going in with my "favourites" -- you're very skilled.

Holy Shit! That's amazing! That's an automatic fave! WHooo!! Go Kayn!

(and the rest of you doubting Thomases, take it from me, Kayn is definitely talented enough to have done this. :D)
