Portrait drawing attempt - Marilyn Monroe

**Zaphry** · 10-24-2013

Like title says, I've tried to relax and start to draw again. It has been long since I held pencil in my hand so it is a bit rough looking.
There is no exact reason why I drew Monroe, it just popped up in google images.

A3 paper drawing paper
3b-9b pencils
Q-tips and soft tissue fabric
hard rubber eraser
And yes, she can count to potato..

The only things I can see wrong are the left eyebrow being a tad too unsymmetrical with the other, and her mole not being more defined and darker, between those two it threw me off a tad but everything else looks great man

. Good work and good to hear you're back at your hobby!

Should've added that critics are welcome! ;D

Not just your threads man, sucks but the graphics section is so dead nowadays. I rarely visit as well.

The drawing looks great as always, Zaphry!

That's way better than anything I could draw. Some criticisms I have are that the nose seems kind of flat, not really three dimensional or life like, and there's something about the mouth/teeth area that bothers me. Nice job though!
