wow, it's so realistic, I can see why they accused you, although if you look hard enough you can still tell it's a drawing. It's so beautiful! :D

Thank you! You're amazing at realism, which I doubt I could ever achieve on a graphic tablet. I mean... the eyes on your version of the beast!

Thank you! What really helped in the shading, is that I used a Staedtler pencil called "Mars Lumographs" which is really really black, so it gives more depth. To blend I used an eyeshadow applicator, which helps a lot.

Hope I explained that well enough. I'm really looking forward to see your portrait of stellina! It looks amazing already!
