Be Patient...

Description

OK I done another one... God this man just takes such a nice photo I can't help myself!

Anyway it took about 2 hours and not much rubbing out so was pretty inspired, usually I at least get one thing wrong and have to rub an eye or nostril out and start again but no. It's from the cover of NME and the minute I saw it I wanted to capture it. He has such a look of vunerability for someone who is caked in make-up and about to go on stage in front of thousends of people.

I used mostly HB 2B 4B and 6B with the odd other B pencil in between, a graphite stick and a putty rubber. Oh and my fingers for smudging. I'm pleased about the reflection light bits in the eyes I did with the putty rubber cause I think that worked really well!
