I am not an artist but...

Good attempt saggi...

u can use more darker pencil (6B) for shading..

HB for sketching..try to like that

then make shade light and dark then it will come more realstic..

salim000....i don't understand ur comment!

Konkana is fine as per her acting skills but for her beauty, i will give her 4/10..

konkona is attractive in a very earthy kinda way....love her lots.and she is not a typical glam doll.that's why i like her so much.erm...this is the original pic from which i drew this pic....just FYI..

3D Machines drawings....even difficult to understand

Is Konkana attractive or glamorous in any ways? her face is stretched in your drawing.

Used to be a great class for sleeping.. 4 hour long class.. Mark the attendance, go to to the hostel room and sleep for a couple of hours then come back and rejoin the class :)

**** Aal Izz Well****

don't even remind me of the drafter....used to hate that thing.it somehow reminded me of an AK47! =D i used to do all the intricate details in ED and MD by free-hand when the professor wasn't looking ^_^ LOL

Comeon I used to top engineering drawing and machine drawing but am crap at artistic drawing.. It's different when you have a drafter with you.

Well thankfully I am still alive after seeing the pic.

UkEngQatar...wellll,i do get compared to Konkona Sen once in a while.but i guess it's coz we share the same skin tone and chubby cheeks ;-)

WK...really?when did u see that?u shouldn't be alive by now if u had seen it :-P

salim000....maybe u're right.i was pretty good at engineering drawing during my university days :-)

an engineer needs to be good in drawings (Pre-requisite)....

if no work in office or home.....makes her more perfect with these sketches ;)

There are good people in this world, and they are not ONLY Muslims, you know. Geez.(last comments by alexa when she left Qiving)

Good work, Try out charcoal too u get it Jarir. Just buy the whole kit, and by the look of u r pics i am sure u will figure out how to use each one .try charcoal on hand made and do post it on QL, CHEERS

You can be HOT or COLD to me, spare me LUKEWARM!!!!

Dear SS, It is an impressive work.And you say you are not an expert.Nah..You are an expert and you are too good.Thanks for sharing the pictures.

These are too good...and you seem to have a lot of free time....

nice work , can u draw kim kardashian ?!?!

************************************

I'm Jack's complete lack of surprise

nice sketches saggi... wish i can draw like this.. the closest i could come as far as drawing is concerned are stick people.. :P

goodluck

that's what i'd written in reply to another comment....i dare not venture to oter mediums.i'm comfortable with my simple little microtip pencil.and no,i prefer drawing women.they make much better subjects.and i love drawing eyes.so women are the best ;-)

Going to church no more makes you a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car. ~ Garrison Keillor

y dont u try oil pastels? i am sure u can do better stuffs with it. nice pics. u have anything of objects?

[img_assist|nid=17892|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=180|height=135]

all that is for professionals....i don't even know HOW to use a charcoal stick.and pencils....i used 0.5 tip microtip pencil to draw and shade all these :-P dunno which grade pencil to use where....thaz the problem.i've never taken it seriously.like i said,just time-pass.

Going to church no more makes you a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car. ~ Garrison Keillor

just a suggestion ,try charcoal stick,and use bold strokes,I feel you are being too careful with pencil,also if you are using pencil try soft lead like 2b,3b,upto 6b,

good work although... if you could make some changes to navya nairs teeth... it would be perfect.

thanks!i am not confident with any other medium.that's why i stick to pencil.and i did these with no special pencils....just an ordinary microtip 0.5 tip pencil :-)

Going to church no more makes you a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car. ~ Garrison Keillor

thank you for ur comments.the pics have captions written on them.so i didn't think it's necessary to put in additional captions.and yes,i did see rms' comment and thanked him for it too :-)

Going to church no more makes you a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car. ~ Garrison Keillor

good for a past time,the medium i guess is pencil,try some other medium,

u shouold have given captions too, otherwise who are not familiar to your culture will not identify those fotos.

did u see rms_00 comment ?... LOL

drmana....happens only once in a while.when i'm really in a mood to clean up QL of all the bashing threads ;-)

rms...thanks! :-) yup,it's them.

SS, I think you're extremely talented. I'm no critic, but I'm seriously impressed :-)

*****If you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say anything at all*****

You seem to be quite in a QLing mood today with so many forum threads by mid day :-)

Those are quite good for a non artist I would say.
