C R I T I Q U E S A R E O F F.
-Because it's done. I only have to give it varnish now.
General critique on my tecnique is okay :)

Got my new a3 scanner (:

The amazing iconTheTragicTruth-Of-Me at DEVIANTART allowed my to play around with her amazing amazing photo! Gosh I was thrilled! (and... also... still am ) Thank you! :heart:

The hand turned out horrible on the scan. The dark areas smugde a lot, it's so annoying x3. But maybe it'll come out looking better after the varnish.

It's NOT photorealistic, this is my interpretation of the picture. The butterfly isn't meant to be perfect, I just figured that it would fit the way her hand is placed.

Btw, I just got myself a website. it still needs a lot of work, but I'll get to that as well. http://gotthardsen.net/

Done with;
Mechanical pencil HB and B2
Eraser pen
Tissue
and as always on my beloved Canson
Varnish
