100 Days of Happiness - Day 18

[dizzojay]

When I go to visit my parents, I often take any art project I'm working on with me; something I can sit and do while my parents are watching crap Saturday night TV.  This weekend was no different, so I was able to really get stuck in on my Sam and Dean portrait, and with an additional hour's work this evening, finally got it finished.

I was really pleased that this is the first double portrait I've finished to my satisfaction - normally I make a good job of the first figure, an then bugger up the second!

And yes, there's a touch of my new pink pencil in this picture!

I can definitely see the rose madder in Sam! I think Sam's turned out better than Dean - that angle suits Sam's face and you've got the shadowing nicely, emphasising that lovely bone structure.

Yes, his shading is so much more intense than Dean's - in the reference picture I used, Dean was in bright light, and Sam was in Dean's shadow!

This is stunning! You really caught Sam's expression, and both their hairs are geat!

Oh hun, they've come out excellently! ♥ I love the slight shading and pinker areas on Sam's lips. LOVELY!

Yes, in the reference picture I used, Dean was in bright light, and Sam was in Dean's shadow, so there are some nice shaded angles on Sam's face.

Oooh, beautiful! I love Sam's hair and cheekbones, and I just want to run my hands through Dean's hair!
