   As I've never drawn a persons face ignore this if you don't agree but I think maybe the eyebrows are slightly too dark and the eyes maybe too light. He looks really good and a very good image of Elvis, so what do I know anyway.

Well, I'm sorry if it's too late to change, but I think his chin is a bit too small and his face seems--angled wrong, or not tall enough or something. I'm not sure how to explain it, or if I'm really right. It looks great overall!

Well thanks for everyones comments.. I really appreciate it!! I think I'm going to call this one done before I start dis-liking Elvis!! I'm happy enough with the outcome, but still see where I could have done things differently.. but hey, it's a learning process!! Thanks again everyone..

hey duke..this came out great..im sure the original is twice as good.....ive been scanning my drawings and trying to fix the resolution...and there just is no way to scan a true version,.even the lightest shade turns out 3 times as dark in a scan...its almost like looking at a drawing under a microscope when i scan something. .....if anyone has any tips on scanning drawings ..i welcome all the advice you can give.

Thanks a bunch everyone!! Absolute, when I scan my drawings I usually use a couple of programs to get the final scan to come out. I scan at 300 DPI, black and white.. then use a program called IrfanView to get the size right for the forum. If it looks like the scan came out too dark or light, I touch it up a bit with photoshop. Hope this helps.

Great job on the shirt! Are you happy with the hair? I know you had concerns early on. You added some nice blending in the highlight area, His hair rolls over nicely.

It turned out great! I especially like the shirt, but the face is really good, too. I've never liked Elvis, but he's interesting looking, anyway, so I did draw some little quick sketches/characatures of him.
