SaiaraAuthorGirl said about proportions. it seems to be I could be wrong but it looks like she was right about your eyes also maybe the gap between them in the nose area is a little wide. If you look at it and focus on the right part of the jaw it seems to protrude out a little even though it should be going back in space. Because her head is at an angle you should see less of the right side in the drawing. Other then those minor things a great work. keep it up
I think the value transitions are wonderful and the use of light and dark are well placed. A few things I would try to be careful of in the future is the halo effect. A lot of times this can become a recurring process when the background is not addressed. but it works fine here. I also agree with what
Hey Ross, nice job. I am a Artist of twenty years and draw like you. I just wanted to say best of luck to you and much success on your art career if that is the road you are pursuing. I have learned over the years (I am 38), that black and white drawings are extremely hard to sell as people prefer color but I draw black and white anyway, so keep it up dude. I have tried to sell my drawings and I have sold many but only because I sold them cheap!
Hey Ross. I agree--You did an amazing job on shading and texture, which is the hard part for most. The likeness is great! It's just the proportions that are a little different. It's not even a huge thing to worry about. Some artists even use grids to make sure they get everything just right. I envy you lol
You're artworks are pretty amazing! The shadowing is really great, and they are much alike the pictures. Just thought i'd comment on this, but it's not just for keira drawing but the others too.
Very good...try working the planes of her face a little more, she has a very sculpted face, and her lips should be huge in proportion to her nose. But her eyes and hair and shading you've got down pat.
you are amazing!!could you draw weird al like in 1999 that would be sooo cool but you are probably to busy.ANYWAY you are the best drawer on youtube and maybe the u.s.thanx for posting!!:)
Once i get all the nitty gritty stuff worked out and settle a few things I will put all my drawings (that i have not already sold) on ebay for the bidding wars. Once i get them out there on ebay I will uplaod a video letting my viewers know that they can go to ebay and buy my work.....stay tuned, or even better subscribe!!
what do you use for the lightly shaded areas? cause when ever i try, the only charcoal i use leaves the lines you scribbled underneath, so do you use grey chalk or something??
I read your description so... I'll try for some constructive critizem. I noticed this a bit, but I'm not a artist, so don't take me too seriously, but maybe you should work a bit on proportions. The eyes were a tad bit small, in my opinion, and the cheeks were a little bit chubby. There also felt like there was something off about the forehead, but really, that was AMAZING! You are a FABLOUS artist, and I'd be lucky to be 1/10000000000000000 that talented. So, hey, don't listen to me.
In Addition to my previous comment: Your Charcoal is probably the best I've seen. They can even match or rival other great artists who use the same medium. I say if you plan to sell any, I would seriously consider it. I would love to order an original from you and display it proudly on my wall :3 I'll be keeping an eye out for them ;D
damn dude another smashing video 5 stars lol i won't call you a son of a bitch again lol you inspired me to try my hand at charcoal drawing cheers dude !!!!!

Hey! Looks like you same as me, intelligent and talented in many fields but always alone. ( i might be wrong ;)
There is something i don't like with your Keira's cheeks (esp. left) or chin line.
