This Portrait took a total of 9 1/2 hours to complete. (not counting the original line drawing-I didn't figure the time on that but if I had to guess I would say 3 to 4 hours on that part.

Regular drawing paper- HB, 2B and 4B pencils.

Lots of tissues (for blending not crying-Ok a little crying went on) and Q-TIps

This project is dedicated to my dear friend InsaneKane87

When I first upload my first drawing here. If memory serves me right it was the lady death pic. He was the very first person to FAV my work and add me to his FRIENDS/WATCH list. After 9 months of being here I watched his work and notice how much improvement he was showing with his pencil rendering. Now I think he uses a different technic than I, mechanical pencil-where I use the traditional sharpen them all the time wood. I can't use a mechanical pencil. But anyway, after seeing his progression it made me believe in myself and tackle some of my worst fears. Hair! I chose this picture because of the hair-the curls the waves and especially the color. But now its done. Thanks to everyone that was watching this WIP and especially to you, Bruce you are an unbelievable artist and I concider you a true friend. Thanks for the support-I only hope to return the favor soon. That's Captain to you guys!
