Okay, here's the first one up. Like I said, it was done in a moving car, and the road was a little rough in places, but I got it done. ;D The drawing didn't take very long, and it is a human face, so...I haven't drawn a human face in probably over a year.The original drawing is pretty small, so I couldn't put a lot of detail in, thank goodness. So here it is, Rommel portrait number one. www.deviantart.com/deviation/48729315/

Hey, the shading is pretty good ! I really like it. The texture looks great too, and the eyes are just like Rommel's. That's a quick drawing ?! *really, really jealous*

Ze EYES...he's going to KILL someone...
I never really liked that picture of him, but that is VERY cool, DS! REALLY nice shading.

Aw, thanks folks for the kind compliments. He's going to kill someone? Hopefully he's not after the deluded artist who drew him. It was pretty quick, an hour or so I'm thinking. I changed his face direction somewhat by accident, so it's not perfectly like the picture of him. I hope I can get good enough at drawing him to make up different poses. That would be very cool. Thanks again. How are your pictures coming?

I got a new idea ! And I love it and I'll have to find a nice pic of Rommel's CoS in Africa before I can do anything. Teehee. I'll try to finish it this week, if my bro's Canadian friend doesn't keep us too busy. See; the kid is supposed to learn French, but I have a feeling this is going to be funny because according to my bro he doesn't really speak it...

So where's this idea of yours, Qual? I'm very curious, and you're not getting off easily. Anyway, here is the companion piece to my other Rommel contest picture. It's a little light still, but I'm giving up for now. Maybe I'll try to darken it later. It took a whooooole lot longer, and it's the first real face I've done in years, literally. What do you think? www.deviantart.com/deviation/50543365/

That's... *gasp* pretty good ! I'm impressed. I always have so much trouble drawing faces ! Maybe I should take art lessons, it certainly seems to be efficient.
Just so I give some criticism, the shades lack some contrast (although that might be the scanner's fault). But the main lines of the face are pretty good, and the uniform is perfect.
This idea of mine ? You're going to laugh... or maybe not... but I don't remember... how silly of me. I knew I should have written it down... *scratches her head*

Yeah, the face definitely needs more work still. I'll agree wholeheartedly with that. I'm very glad you liked the uniform; that was the one part that I thought went well. The face,eh... You forgot the idea? Now that I'm curious? It involves Rommel's CoCs. Are you sure you forgot?
