nice stuff. really good foundation. you should pick up this jdhillberry book. your style of high contrast would prob really benefit from the blending techniques he espouses. i say this because i have seen a number of before and afters, enough to be a believer. hell, maybe ill buy it.

:do you know that i am your big fan" thats hilarious. maybe ill make it my signature. no offense marcelo. your english is way better than my italian.

anyway, kepp it up honeybee.

later

Thank you Mike, Camellia, and verdaccio!
Yes, I know studying can make a lot of difference, and I did buy J. D. Hillberry's book recently. I haven't read much of it so far. I'm very busy right now and haven't been working on my Princess Diana portrait for a while. I also don't have much money to buy tools with, but I will try to buy some better things sometime. I did buy some graphite pencils and charcoal and used them on my Diana portrait, and it looks much better (contrast wise, at least) than my previous drawings.
Thanks again for your encouraging input!
