Description
hi everybody!i haven't posted any new work in a long while, i'm busier and busier every day...same old things: university work and family!
now the little story behind this drawing... obviously the girl is not kristen stewart but a friend of mine... we have worked together till last week, when she found another job she was more interested in and left, now that i can't see her every day i miss her so much!.... since the first time i've seen her i thought she would have been a wonderful subject for a drawing (i've always found her so beautiful!) and since she's so crazy about pattinson i thought it a good idea to give her this artwork as a present... so that she can always remember me in some way or another ^^ i only hope to make her lovely face justice
edit// finally doooone!!! i can't believe i made it in the end, i'm so glad!
since i liked this kind of fanart a lot i would like to make a list of its similars: pls send me a link to all the traditional artworks with a want-to-be bella u've seen on DA (i know that all of u girls who read the book had dreamt of being her at least once ;D )
here's my first by lovely -> [link]
check it out!
as always pls tell me everything u think about my latest creation!

This is really sweet! She will be happy for sure. xD I know it because IΒ΄m the girl who *holdcsepp drew in her piece, and I was sooooooooooooo excited that I kept jumping up and down for days hahaha. I even printed and framed it. This is a great gift for a fan.
Your friend has lovely features and you did such a great work with Rob! Beautiful.

i also think rob came out pretty well, i hope my friend will have the same reaction u had, i think i'll give it to her next week i'm so excited about it

IΒ΄m sure she will have the same reaction. ItΒ΄s always a sweet surprise when someone draws something like this for you. Especially if youΒ΄re a big fan of that someone drew at your side. ^^
Good luck, even if I know you will not need it. SheΒ΄ll love it.

yeah it is, doesn't it look so?

It does indeed, but I asked because sometimes I make the mistake of thinking a piece is finished then the artist tells me it's not lol and that they still want to put more work in it. So I thought I'd ask first >.<' It looks very, very good. I really like the sepia tone that is over laying the pencil. It makes the overall piece fit well with the flowers rather than it being complete gray against color. It makes it work very well

I really, really like the added color in the flowers for the border... it's blending so well with the black and white. (and, I love his hair, it looks soo soft!)
π: 0 β©: 1
his hair was a pain, really! it took me soo long to finish them, but i'm happy with the result, even if it's not as realistic as i wanted it to be.. glad the flowers look good

His hair looks a lot more realistic than you think it does! Sometimes with certain things in a drawing you have to take artistic liberties because we can't render exactly what we see and that's why we all develop our own unique styles. The way you draw hair in your portraits is one of the things that defines your style and and sets it apart from all the other portrait artists I've seen out there!

thx so much rick! i've seen your latest work! pretty great!

It is looking very good! I really like how your handling the scruff on his chin! It looks so scraggly yet soft and I kind of want to pet it lol. And, his expression is coming out great! HE looks like he really adores her! The only critique I have is as you continue on with "Bella" just be careful for how hard you draw the lines defining her chin. You want to make sure she has a soft, very feminine look to her. I think doing the flowers in a bit of color will be a nice touch and will help bring out the portraits a lot so your eyes are drawn directly to them.

i've drawn the line of her chis so hard because her hair is black and i wanted to see how her face would have turned out once i added the contrast with the hair... in the pic i have of her there is a lock of hair covering the right side of her chin, this is why i actually see it so marked, but i still haven't drawn that lock, and i'm undecided wether to draw it or not ^^ i hope the flowers will be good, i don't know if it would be better to ink the lineart or leave them as they are .. the effect i'd like to obtain is similar to this one [link] when i drew this piece i was so happy with how the daisies came out that i thought they were perfect to frame this picture, but i'm afraid that the inking part is important to get the same effect... it a great dilemma ^^

For some reason I can't see the link you sent me:/ (see if you can resend it to me... so I can see the reference:/) My suggestion with the lock of hair, is not add it in until you do the rest of her dark hair and do a little bit of her face... so you see it starting to come together a little more. After that if you think you need it for the composition you still have room to add it and then finish with the details on her face without it taking away from what you've drawn all ready. You can also work a little more on it then do a quick sketch on a piece of tracing paper and hold it over the piece, the sketch having the lock of hair in it and see if you think it would work compositionally. It's so hard to place hair correctly at times in a composition... but hair is definitely one of your strong points and I think it will work out fine once you get it placed.

the reference is the manga piece i've done of twilight, i sent the link so it would be faster to find it ^^, i've never thought about experimenting with tracing paper, thx for illuminating me on this technique

I'm sorry :/ It's very hard when your trying to make presents, drawings always end up taking longer than we think they will when we start them. I know Christmas has passed now... but did you get everything done that you needed to?
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah i started to buy presents 1 1/2 months before christmas so i was plenty on time.. but i'm still working on the drawing which is more or less at the stage it was when i posted it last

I'd been wanting to ask you, what you were going to school for? Don't worry about the drawing not being very far done... look at how long "Oblivion" has taken me and it's still not finished lol. Especially with being in school you have a lot of work to do so taking your time will take the stress off.

Oh I was first wondering because the girl doesn't look like Bella until I read the description
I'm really curious about the finished piece!

i'm so glad u're liking it

This is nearly exactly the way I meant it, very nice
hmm well I have no idea but I actually think a background is not really necessary because the flowers look like a kind of border
π: 0 β©: 1
i just don't want to leave it blank, i was thinking about a mix of pastel colors from green to pink or smt like it...
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm sure that will look nice, just don't make a too striking background and it will be fine <3

Looking great - awesome gift idea too! Pattinson is looking very well (recognizable I mean) as for the girl, I'm assuming it's looking great! I really like the 'frame' you've given it with the flowers - I think that's gonna look really cool once it's all shaded and everything.
π: 0 β©: 1
thx so much dear! i think i'm going to color the flowers and leave the rest non strongly shaded black and white... it's still a long way before i'll finish my lotr fanart, i have no time and no mind to do it.. way too damn tired
