Trying for a likeness
A quick sketch from life of BB in the back of the Mole from the last round, which still has a few blank pages. I'd like to be able to do likenesses. Click sketch to enlarge. I'd really like to be able to do likenesses!!!
I don't know who this guy is, but it does look a lot like someone... I love the hair and beard texture. To me it looks like the very unlikely child of Hemingway and Terry Pratchett.

Don't look now, Mary, but I think you just did a likeness. ;) LOL. This is a good reminder to me to try a few portraits.
Thanks, Balookey! YAY!
I want to illustrate my own kids' books.
BB was blabbing and moving and not holding still.

It's my husband.
What I'd like would be for it to look a lot like HIM! LOL!
THANKS! :-D
Yeah, portraits are not a strong point for me yet, but I love this one!
I think you have done some great likenesses (is that a word) of Biker Buddy!
I like the likeness! It has a soothing look to it.
Thanks so much Steve, Andrea and Mike!!! His mouth looks a little funny, because he was talking to PB the whole time I was drawing him.
I do like the warm feel of it--it's kind of what I'd like for illos for the children's books I'm working on.
