Wow, it is done. And hell, I'm proud of this drawing! :excited:

That's right, Capricorn's my favourite 30 Seconds to Mars song. :D Besides, both Jared and I are Capricorns as signs. He's 5 days older than I am. And 16 years... lol.

As I told in this one and only WIP I posted of this portrait, I became a huge fan of this guy. He's so incredibly talented. Normally Í think it's weird when an actor forms a band, or a musician turns into an actor for that matter, because it looks like they want to show what other talents they also have. And most of the times they haven't.

But Jared is, aside from the great acting, one hell of a musician too. As far as I can judge, live he's an awesome singer. I need to see them live someday... *sigh*

Anyway, I had a lot of troubles getting the hair right. As simple as it may seem, the darkest part was extremely difficult. His entire face however, was a lot of fun to draw and had no problems drawing it at all.

Whoa I love his eyes :love:

--------------------------------------------------------------

Stuff I used:
  • 2H, HB, B, 2B & 3B mechanical pencils

  • 5B, 6B & 9B regular pencils

  • crappy sketchbook paper, I want some new stuff!

  • tissue for blending

  • no erasers

  • Time spent: approx 18 to 20 hours I think

    Work in progress can be found here:
    WIP 3


    Last, but certainly not least:
    This drawing is dedicated to *nabey because she's awesome and she likes Jared & 30 seconds to mars too and she's my idol!! :D Check out her lovely gallery! So talented :heart:

    I know what you mean about the dark parts, I find them so difficult to do, especially in hair. You somehow have to make it look like hair even though you can't really see it. You've done a great job though! Beautiful work.

    Wow awesome. Lol. Yet again.
    I wonder...do you ever get tired of people constantly telling you how awesome and talented you are? Even if it's true?
    Well...if it were me I might not mind. :P

    You're a machine, aren't you? *rubs eyes*
    Seriously, even in full view you almost can't tell that this was made with pencils.
    The details in his hair and beard are so amazing >-<
    Awesome work, truly, deeply awesome
