"self portrait....Final..."

Here is my wedding photo/ self portrait. I was at the point where I just didn't want to do it any more, but I slowly finished it. Comments are welcome.

your portrait looks really good! afblades

Very good! You have put lots of quality effort on all those black surfaces. I have a feeling the drawing looks ALOT like the reference you showed us earlier

Very well done! With that amout of lighting from the flash, I always find it difficult to get the corner of the mouth correctly. You did an excellent job!!

This is a terrific drawing!

Thank you

this is brilliant! I love the energy of the picture - it makes me smile. You've captured the way the flash lit your faces really well - great contrast.
