For some reason Irina is proving to be very challenging for me. This is suppose to be Irina, but I think it kinda looks like Olga  Undecided



It reminds me of Tatiana : D Either way, I think it looks beautiful!

Here is my Alexei Nicholaievich, some pencils can be seen:

(I had to make size lower, due to problems with my PhotoBucket)
November of 1915, after receiving the Order of St. George. I ought to get that scanner.  ;-)  As an aritst, it is very important for me to know if I got similarity with him. Embarrassed  Well done, I am amazed, Lisa and Keegan.

Did you use pen and watercolor? I think the effect was very nice. Good work  Wink

Nope, just a plain old Number 2 pencil Smiley  I'm glad you like it; this one took awhile with all the detail on her gown.

I usually don't try to sketch familiar people, I do much better ( i believe) when I do it free style, just sketching whatever pops into mind. For some reason Irina is very difficult for me. But thanks for the encouraging words, I will probably be retrying to sketch her when I'm in class tomorrow night.

Well I didn't work on Irina, instead I shifted my attention to other royals.

I tried to sketch Victoria Melita from an picture I saw on the Hessen archives. I think it turned out better than Irina. I'm still not completely satisfied but it's a start.

That's really good! I love the eyes!


but many I suggest on one thing? is the make the lips a tiny bit wider. you want the corner of the lips to line up with the pupils of the eyes.
