Re: Pencil portrait.

You didn't say .. but it looks like Michael Jordan.

As a suggestion .. watch the size of the irises. They ought to be no more than about half the diameter of the eyeball. Also be sure the irises are both the same size.

Re: Pencil portrait.

Interesting work, JD.

It seems to me that the head could be a bit larger and rounder specially at our right side on the screen.( I could be wrong....) The far eye, meaning the one at our right side on the screen should be smaller than the nearer one, due to perspective. I agree with Ken about the irises.

I really like the strong darks and you have done a nice work with them.

Saludos
