Liv Tyler -- my best drawing...

Joehoe!! finally finished!! I'm really happy with the result!! I wanted this one to be perfect, and for now I think I'm close... It's the best drawing I ever made!! :D I like the pillow, background is not very special, it was something like this in the picture, maybe something different.. but that doesn't matter. I make some things darker in the drawing, and also scanned it darker, so it looks better now! hope you like it!! Tools of trade: + A3 size paper + 2b mechanical pencil + hb mechanical pencil + 8b pencil + kneaded eraser + blending sticks + reference picture + 15 hours and 50 minutes + my hand

This seems to go beyond technical briliance. It's a stunning illusion. Of course credit must go to Liv and the original photographer but my guess is that this is a transformation where you have added life to the image.
