Description This one was a challenge, as you can probably tell. In between being home (which meant temperatures so cold I could barely hold my pen, let alone draw well) and the pressure of my first prize request for Porsheee (   I really hope you like it), it didn't really help when Photoshop decided it was going to change the look of my favourite brush. Which meant I basically had to relearn how to detail and draw hair with this fat clunky thing that used to be my lovely number one brush. I'm trying to find a replacement but it's hard, so you all might have to bear with me while I basically start over with digital art.   

Anyway, this is a portrait of Porsheee herself, so it was nice but scary to draw a real person for a change.

I can't... what do I say so something so amazing?? This was such a great surprise to come back to! I thought it'd be a couple more weeks or something, so posting it so soon took me by surprise. I'm trying to think of something to say, but even after staring at it so long I can't think of the right words to describe it... 
I love how, despite the brush limitations (I'm sorry to hear about that! You may just have to re-download it or whatever, because my program does that too sometimes), you still managed to pull it off. And pull it off so well! All those small details in the hair, the tons of little freckles, it's amazing. 
And I think the most remarkable thing is that it does look like me. I'd say especially the eyes. And my nose. And hair. It's such a honor to be drawn by you, honestly. I AM NOT WORTHY!   
I'm sorry it took so much trouble... but the result is fantastic! Really, I can't thank you enough!

Awww you flatter me! Thank you so so much    You are totally worthy. I'm not worthy to draw you actually.   
It's fine, I did have a lot of fun doing it even with the trouble! I figured out what the thing with the brushes was - it had to do with plugging in my tablet and THEN opening Photoshop, otherwise it doesn't register pen pressure, which was the problem, I found out.
So anyway, thank you so much, I'm so glad you like it!
