FANTASTIC hair...something taken for granted all too often, but the hair is downright hypnotic!
And the angles in the facial structure will almost cut you!
The color/shading choices really make this one pop too...man I could go on and on about this one!
Stunning Chris...stunning!; March 17, 2011 at 8:38 AM
Shawn Crystal said...: I feel like such a novice when i see your drawings. You have such command of your craft, and an understanding of form it's simply amazing.; March 17, 2011 at 9:20 AM
Adrian Johnson said...: Great job, CB!

Can never go wrong with Helena Bonham Carter. You nailed that dark hair and those eyes.... whoooooo, sir.; March 17, 2011 at 10:02 AM
chris be said...: brandon-howdy and thanks sir! the original is a lil bigger than thumbnail size- lets say big toenail size? the only way to not get lost in all the hair ;p reading how enthused you were really put a step in my drawin day.
professor jungle bird - it's good to feel like a novice, how else are we gonna learn? if i didn't i wouldn't be trying to figure out all these faces. i swear, every single one is whole new ball of wax.
adriaaaaan!- you must be as sick of that joke as rico is of gerardo. unfortunately, you can go wrong with her, as i found out the hard way. after doing due diligence with the full oscars list, and really enjoying her in "the kings speech" , i lost my damn mind and thought " 'howards end', why not?" despite the fact that her hair in that goes down to her waist nearly, the movie put me in a f*cking coma. good god. thanks for saying hey, always good to hear from you.
BTW, i just came across emails from you and braxton in my yahoo account, ill holler soon from my regular gmail one, sorry bout that.; March 17, 2011 at 2:36 PM
Brandon Padgett said...: I'm not surprised it's that small, but pretty amazed it holds its impact at a larger size! If you make it out to Sketch Charlotte tonight, pease bring it...I'd LOVE to see it in person!; March 17, 2011 at 4:31 PM
Heather said...: Very impressive. You captured more of a sweetness than her normal over-the-top craziness (which is one of the things that I love about her).; March 17, 2011 at 4:59 PM
Adrian Johnson said...: All good, CB.

In regards to can't go wrong with Helena, I was speaking more of her comely looks than her films. While she's done some decent ones, most can be long in the tooth.

And I saw her with her hair straightened...flag on the play. Naw, can't do it. Need the dark frizzy hair, sir.; March 17, 2011 at 10:54 PM
