. This doesn’t mean that I’m not satisfied with the result (… I am 
), I simply don’t have the patience to continue… (I think my patience got lost somewhere between the hairs of his beard).
! Maybe you guys have been using this forever, but I just stumbled across it – by accident. I was erasing part of the background and tried to find something to wipe away those little, annoying leftovers from the kneaded eraser without ruining the drawing, when I thought of brushing them away with a paint brush. That worked out pretty well, and as I was about to continue with drawing, I realized that I blended the background nice and smoothly. It was really fascinating. Why hadn’t I thought of that before?!?! Anyway, thought I should share this epiphany with you (I wish I had one while drawing the microphone).
(THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT 
, you’ll get the promised llama badge in a minute )! It’s actually part of the lyrics from “The End of the Beginning” by 30 Seconds To Mars

i could start off by listing all the things i like about this but it would take a long time, it is impactful, striking, well rendered, realistiv, emotive, textured... in fact i'm going to run out of superlatives!
the biggest thing that lets it down (and i know this cant always be helped) is the watermark across all the bits i want to look at... it detracts from the image which is such a shame. i know that the art world is teeming with people who steal others work and claim it as their own and it ruins the enjoyment for all others, but its a shame we cant see this drawing in all its glory.
the other thing i would say, is that maybe the skin would benefit from a little more detail? there is a great tutorial by svera (look in the graphite gods tutorial section) which gives a really easy method to drawing photo realistic skin tone, complete with pores and hairs...
i want to be really helpful and give a thorough critical analysis but this is too good! hopefully some of our masters will be able to shed some more light for you?
