From a fellow pencil artist! wow, I thought it was a photo at first. Nice!

How long did it take you to draw that?

some artists do not consider it to be a compliment to tell them, but I mean it as a compliment nevertheless when saying: the first seconds made me thinking I was looking at an old photograph. Amazing work!

That's awesome!

One question, you can answer me in PM if you like. How much do you charge from a drawing? :hmm: You do draw these for clients, right?

You're a very talented artist.
