Artist's Comments

This is a commission for :iconthepurplemonster:

She asked me to make a really handsome guy :aww:
So this time, I guess, the nearby women may like this pic first of all ;)
It is a small piece. An A/5 in a size :D
But I loved makeing it :D It was hard for me, becouse, I used to make woman :aww:
Especially his face was the source of the problem...

About selkies: These are shapechangers, and may trasnform into a seal at will. In human form, they not really look different form other people, maybe their pale skin is a bit strange at first glance.
They can be found in different mithologies (such as celtic)

Miscallenous:
Size: A/5
I used 2B, 4B pencil + a mechanical pencil with a HB lead
A white pastell pencil + a white pitt pencil
Photo reference used!
Work time: nearly 8 hours

thanks :D
It is a bit different from the original, becouse, I had to put up an auto-comtrast with the Photoshop, becouse, the scenner eats the lights + shadows :(

I'm glad that you like it :D

Hmmm... igazából, ez egy képről van másolva... ergo onnan egyszerű :aww:
Nos, ami azt illeti, nagyon sok jó fényképész van itt fent :D
Én is az egyik alkotótól szedtem össze ezt a képet :floating:
Mondjuk, igaz, hogy név szerint nem tüntettem fel őt...

A másik, hogy én is még tanulom az anatómiát :aww:

His face was a lifetime until I finished it :faint:
The first attempts were looked funny :aww: He resembled mostly a gay or some really strange female ;)

If you can't be a good example, try to be a horrible warning.
:iconlena-hyena:
Well, he is very hansome :heart:

Is this the actual colour of the paper you use? Or do you change it later? I've noticed it in your other drawings...

He kissed me awake, and no one was sorry
