So this is Floor Jansen, don't you know who she is? O.O, you don't know what you're missing!! This woman has one of the most wonderful voices ever, she's the vocalist from the dutch band After Forever, check them out only to enjoy her beautiful voice.

Anyway, I can yell out proud this is my best drawing ever!! :D I didn't spent 20h as I was used to, I spent 7 or so but I worked sooooooooooooo much, i drew even the smallest detail, high detailed portrait (never as detailed as other portraits i've seen, of course), anyway, i'm so proud of myself, i impressed myself :D!! I wanted to make her perfect cos I admire her so much! Just like Bunbury. Anyway, the same as always, paper gvarro 170gr, mostly 2B pencil and also 2H and 4H pencils. A rubber for the highlights.

*EDIT* I could give it to her and she liked it very much, also did Sander ^^ which is great, because he's an arts teacher, he said to me: "I give you a 10!" ^^

Yes , My portrait drawings can take 20 hours + but I put that down to me being such a perfectionist!!! lol!
How long have you been working on portraits?

This really is beautiful!

P.S. Sander is an arts teacher?! This band is just full of many talents!!!

Thank you! =) And yes, only 7h, but it's all about practise. In the beginning I could spend around 20h at least on a portrait, but after many years drawing faces, it becomes very simple. Just keep on drawing and you'll see =)

And thanks for the fave!

A fantastic voice! And a fantastic drawing!
You made her even prettier than she really is. :)
But as the Romans used to say: De gustibus non disputandum est. :)
