it's just like we're in another world
how we suit each other, oh no
but you never get close
- that's close enough...
Pete Doherty and Carl Barat, co-frontmen of The Libertines, back in the day when they were young and inseparable. Aww. I was stupid enough to choose to draw Peter from an angle where you can't quite see his most defining feature - the round, childish eyes with the less-than-innocent dark circles underneath. As a result, I kind of screwed up the resemblance, and aged him when I actually wanted him to look young. *sigh*
That said - this is the first pseudo-realistic piece I've drawn in over two years, and so I am insanely proud of it, even if - technically at least - it's far from my best work. I like the greys, I like the textures, I like the scruffy feel of the hair and the t-shirt, the hand holding the cigarette is not half-bad... and more than anything I like that it feels like my normal style is still there, and it's not a mere photographic copy, because really... where's the fun in that?
B and 4B pencil on paper. Full view please! The small size doesn't do it justice...
YAY OMG YOU FINISHED IT! dkjssknsldkaslan since you posted the scraps version a few days ago I've been listening to the Libertines non-stop xD
I'm completely in awe of this! You can deffinetly tell who it is, I don't think you did badly on Pete at all, I adore the shading you've done on his hair, and Carl's hand with the cigarette. Fantastic.

Aw, thank you! I've been listening to Up the Bracket non stop while drawing - I am really happy you like it. Fans are always the nastiest judges when you do a portrait.
Oh my god the finished drawing! *fall*
Pete resembles Pete that's amazing, this guy is so hard >_< but here...really good. Carl, he... I lost my words
This drawing he have a special emotion... and the difference between you're style and the photographic-style is perfect ^^
Wow!
I've been by your gallery a few times, and I'm always excited to see new work from you, even if I don't know exactly what it's from. You manage to get down the perfect amount of detail without overdoing it. I love it!
