:damphyr: Mr. Robert Downey Jr.


I wanted a new challenge, so I grabbed my pencils and was thinking that it was about dAmn time I added some colour into my drawings.

I'm planning to make more of these kind of portraits which contains simplicity.

I only draw the eyes, nose and mouth in a gradient of colours, so the person must be recognizable from those three parts. That makes it a challenge.


If there are any suggestions on who you would like to see next in the same drawing technique, feel free to leave a comment :sherlock: you may also suggest the colours.


Expect my Jared Leto drawing probably around tomorrow :la:


:damphyr: Tools:
Used: 8 different coloured pencils (green/blue/purple), 6B, Tortillion for blending, kneaded eraser
Time: 8 hours
Size: A4
Paper: 200 g/m2 paper



Thanks for looking! :heart:

I feel like this drawing is very unique and you used the colors very well. It is a very nice balance. I also feel as if the left eye is slightly larger than the right eye but I can't be sure. And may I asked if you used stippling techniques? I love the intensity of the eyes; it really strikes you with a piercing look. I feel like just maybe you could have done a little more with this piece but that's open for debate. And the gradation of each color is very clean and simple. Overall it is a very nice composition. Good job!
