Description

Again... You must be all really tired of this picture I know :p But I want it in my gallery.
Done with mechanical pencils and a kneadable eraser, it took long hours (the most I have worked on a pic). More tech info and wips at Da.
This picture is mine and it was only published in here and in Da. Many others have done Aragorn, so that's why I decided to put that watermark to avoid confusion. It's the last copy of a celebrity photo I do by the way.. some members requested more in the last comic style pics I posted, but I'll do more realistic pictures of other subjects.

I have permission to use the reference picture from www.elsenordelosanillos.com ... the official website (in Spanish) of the film. I chose the Spanish website because you receive replies very soon. And they actually asked me to post my drawing in the fan-art drawings section, which can be found here> http://www.elsenordelosanillos.com/tierramedia.asp?CategoryId=1059
I think I will add it.

Es la tercera vez que me despublican el dibujo, gracias por los comentarios y espero que este dibu se quede en la galería de una vez. Este lo llevé como muestra a un acto benéfico que organizamos en mi colegio para recaudar dinero para los niños de un pueblo de Perú, algunos vendían tartas, otros pulseras, yo hacía retratos a la gente :p... cada retrato eran 20 minutos y costaban 15 euros. Al final entre todos recaudamos 14.769 euros :) más los 7000 del año pasado podrán hacer un colegio allí!

PS: The background top right corner was smudged to delete dirt spots. I know it doesn't look natural but I couldn't do it any better :p

Very impressive technical skill! Your ability to convincingly render textures ranging from the metal of the sword and chain mail to the softness of the beard is commendable.

It's a drawing of a photograph, to me, I would rather have the photograph - why draw something that already exists perfectly in another medium? The drawing as is is of course good, only crits would be that his face lacks definition in bone structure, the hand is more detailed than needs to be, his hair seems thinning and the clothing has no form. My point is that if one does a realist drawing from a photo the photo will always be better, no matter if in color or black and white. Your talent would be more suited for original works in pencil, weather realist or not. +8

excellent pencil skills VC and yes it does seem pointless drawing something that already exists but it doesnt really matter as long as a) you enjoy doing it and b) you create your own stuff too (which I can see you do)

I see it this way, we are all fans of something and its human nature to want to either sing a song we like or draw pictures of films or people we like. All the famous singer and bands out there probably started off doing cover versions! Its good practice. I think this is good practice too.

I agree original works would put your talent to better use but I dont see anything wrong with doing drawings like this either.

this is wonderful really. i really like how observant and devoted you are to detail. regardless of the subject the end result is always a fantastic drawing. a couple of things hit me though when i saw this. his jaws/cheeks are rounder and fuller in your drawing and his mouth is wider in the ref pic. but regardless of that, you've done an amazing job and i'm looking forward to seeing more of your works

and by the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

it's good practice...I'm going to pick on you anyway...your technical skill is very good, but there are obvious positioning errors on the face like the mouth and the eyes...very nice pencil skills though ;)

Eres incrible Blanca... ya te lo he dicho.. pintas excelente (thumbup)
tu estilo en lapiz y en este trabajo mucho más, me recuerda a el de Diane Özdamar, un muy buen sombreado.

Very good pencil skills!

I agree about some small proportional 'errors',
but technically it's dazzling

I'm really curious how your skills will develop in 5 years or so,
as youre already this good at such young age

well done!

Well regarding the photorealistic stuff...glad to hear you're slowly getting away from relying solely on photos. I know I can't stand to copy stuff integrally anymore

Beautifully done and the execution is remarkable. The eyes are extremely riveting and even with the competing details and strong lights and darks of the hand and chain link armor, the eyes remain the focal point, and draw my attention back to them every time . If you wanted to make the eyes really "pop" you could have "softened" the detail in the hands and armor just a bit, but ln this case I think it is important to give equal billing to these elements, so I like it just the way it is.

The strong vertical line of he sword in the composition helps draw the viewer's eye up as well as downward, and the small similarity of the shoulders form a very powerful horizontal element making it a rock solid overall composition. This is the first time that I have seen it - I'm relatively new to the group - so thank you for re-publishing this piece, Bianca! Top marks.

Great details, it takes a great deal of patience. I think he looks more handsome on your drawing than on the poster
The only crit I would have is the slightly grainy hands.
I hope you will do such a drawing with one of your own characters too it would be great to see that detail on your own designs.
