AmazingPhil with Eyeliner

Description

Alright, I guess I have some explaining to do. First off, I literally have not drawn in, like, half a year. Not even serious doodles on the side of my page. Nothing. So this is pretty rough. Second, I think I need to explain the eyeliner. So, originally I was planning on drawing a girl. I did the face, the eyes, part of the nose, then realized I really wanted to draw Phil's hair. So I started doing that and then the drawing slowly transformed into Phil. I had already done the eyes in charcoal so... there was no going back. Sorry, he looks very feminine (you should have seen him when he still had girl eyebrows). But ya, i tried to make the features a bit more manly. Also, I do not have a scanner, so this was taken with an IPad. I know, the horror. For pencils I used Soft Crabon Sketch, B pencil, 2B pencil, Extra Black Charcoal, 2B medium charcoal, 4B soft charcoal, and toilet paper for shading. Again, the horror. If you guys think this... isnt terrible, then feel free to make a request for a new drawing. im trying to get back into it. I definitely need to work on it.... a lot. Sorry for the terrible everything. Also, Phil's pose is original, so it was much harder to draw. Have any of you noticed he almost always tilts his head to the left? Ya, I thought it was time to shake it up a bit. Enjoy, maybe! sorry for the terribly long description!

The depth and shading is fantastic, the eyes and hair are awesome...This is a great piece of work! I do like how you can tell it represents AmazingPhil, yet at the same time it is unique looking and you can see your certain style. Some ways you could improve would be to look at an image of Phil while drawing the piece so you can nail the proportions and size of everything. The idea that you haven't drawn anything for a long time is hard to believe, saying you just drew a wonderful sketch. (I cannot draw people, but still, this is GREAT!)
Great job, can't wait to see more in the future! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>
