Got to agree. You have a lot of talent. I particularly love the nose and the spikes on the collar. That is some very very nice shading for a 15 year old boy k:

thanks, tom and reup!!

you know what makes me really sad is the fact, that when i was younger, i had much
more energy to put into painting and drawing, while during the last few years much
of this motivation has vanished. ok, studying and other things might be an explanation
for this regress, but nevertheless i do hope, that i will find the way back to my flow
soon.

your feedback is quite encouraging, so let's see what the future will reveal
thanks again!

as i've mentioned in some of my last posts, i haven't drawn anything lately.
the last weekend, i was at home feeling quite bored, so i finally chose to
give my neglected hobby a new try...

the first portrait has been done rather quickly to regain the routine of drawing
a head. i know, it's very rough (especially the nose) but...oh well, it's an approach
after a loooong time without practice.


the second one has been done with more patience, yet it's far from being perfect.

The first portret looks like Syrian president Assad.

hehe, you're right stroggy.
the portrait resembles the pic you've posted, indeed.
(yet i didn't take president assad as model - still, funny coincidence!)

hmm

I agree, the first one could use some touching up, but I still love your technique.

The second one... gorgeous. I love the contrast, it's extremely well done. k:

And... as always, I love it when you post your art. It's so awesome to see such goodies from you

So do I!

Always nice to see someone of the old core come up with something new, and very good for being made from scratch!

I personally like the most the first one, it's just very expressive.
The second remembers me of someone, but can't tell who. Awesome job on both! k:
