I did this for Down and out topic... I took extralobes advice and looked through a couple of National Geographics.. Very nice source for reference pics.. I was looking for old homless people but then I saw a funny sorta tribes man... It didnt have much to do with the topic but I really thought it would be cool to sketch that pic... And I thought... umm gotta relate this piece back to the topic so well er he's passed out on the ground smoking pot.. heh I dont think my teacher was really to concrened with me for drifting of the subject... but damm there are some cool pics in national geographic..

Anyway here is the sketch.. its not actually finished it was 2:30am and it was due the next day so I did as much as I could before my eyes gave out



I would really apreciate some comments...

The right eye is of and so is the left nostril.. but anyway Ive already handed my work in so its too late to change anything..

OK cool thanks for your time...

Comments Crits questions

thanks

Looks like a guy chewing on a cigar? It looks as though you got a little lazy around the mouth. Everything else is pretty well defined except for that area. Since that is the main focal point of the piece it really takes away from the whole image.

Is that traditional pencil or tablet. The nostrils are not possitioned right, in respect to the position of the eyes. The pipe isn't defined that well and it looks like it is blendig in with the lip, mainly the lower lip needs some work. The shoulders position seem awkward, maybe it's just the angle of the pic.

I like what you did with the ear, very realistic.

It's good for a sketch, quite good but it would be better if you fixed the contrast and added color. The whole thing is a bit too light.

btw, I know how it feels when ppl don't respond to posts.

I like the pic! Especially the lighting. It would look cooler if you made the shadows a bit darker and more contrasting. It would have more of an impact then. Hope your teacher likes it!
