...EDIT...

Added a subtle (???) watermark to the image. Apparently people like to claim this as their own. Found a lot of my work on russian and scandinavian websites lately.... :roll:



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


I know what you're thinking...

'Huh? What is this? I don't know this character?!?!'

Hmm well, that's because it's a character I made up.
Yes, self made! What you see is a close up of a small part of the drawing...



This is one of my characters, called Nora.
She was born from the sky. A falling star who came down to earth to guide those who need help.

Nora means 'Light' in greek, or 'Guiding star'.

I designed her some years ago, but never dared to draw a realistic portrait of her. And now I did, go me!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm so proud of this one.

The form of her face is based upon an image of the beautiful *faestock , which can be seen here.
Compare it to the ref, and you'll see I changed a lot of her facial features, such as her nose, eyes, eyebrows, eyelashes, neck, ear...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


So... what exactly did I made up?
Basically everything, lol.
I'm most proud of the ear, because it looks pretty realistic.


I cut off half of the picture, even though it looked pretty good. But why?
For now I just don't think it would fit. I like this head shot. That's it for now, lol. More OC's coming soon... :)



Stuff I used:
  • 4H, 2H, H, HB, B, 2B & 3B mechanical pencils

  • erasers... lots and lots of erasers...

  • my usual sketchbook paper, A4 size

  • reference image

  • imagination lol yay


  • Time spent: just a few days

    That's so beautiful :3

    I fav'd it because you worked so hard on it and you're proud of it and it's pretty and I love OC work and that's so awesome you're able to do a realism pic of an OC! *O*

    She's so prettyyy I love her story too. ^^

    She is very pretty. And I like her facial expression, it is perfect with your description :) I would love to see more original art from you!
    Beautiful pic as always.

    You'll never censor me
    You better cherish me
    My reason has a voice
    Freedoms gone but we'll always have a choice
    You're drawing too dark, i think. There's a lack of some bright tones here...
    This is simply amazing :faint:
