Description

So I'm being productive here:D

This piece is mostly to test out my new coloured pencils.
And secondly a tribute to the man with the most gorgeous eyes ever; Jared Leto!

So I ordered some Faber Castell Polochromos thanks to so many fantastic people suggesting them:heart:

While I was waiting for them I wanted to draw something. And then I decided to do a piece with some graphite and some colours. It was brilliant because by the time I got my colours I was done with the graphite part :D

And I must say: I LOVED the Polychromos! They felt like a dream and I was practically grinning my way through it! :XD:

About the piece :

Size: A4
Tools: Mars Lumograph pencils, Faber Castell Polychromos coloured pencils, q-tips, rubbers.
Reference and grid used

I feel that it looks better on paper though..

I hope you guys like it! :love:

This is by far one of the best pieces of art I've ever seen. I love the way you've done drawn part as if it's a rip to show the real Jared behind it! I especially love the eyes, especially the coloured one, you've caught the beauty perfectly in it. The colours of the skin tone is well blended and looks absolutely perfect! The amount of detail in this is exceptional, and the facial hair looks like a lot of time was spent, as there are several different shades as well as the fact of the directions they're going in. No matter how hard I look I just can't find a single fault with this. Well done, no words can be used to describe how much I love this.
