this is sooo sexy. the netting, the LOOK in the eyes. you nailed them, man. they're prefect. i love it. the cigarette is so awesome and the shadowing around the nose and on the face from the hand... wow. and the teeth, the way the mouth is. MAN. i can't get over this.
Wow... obviously it's impressive. You put down 15 hours. And well, that does show through. But I'm a bit dissappointed that realism isn't appreciated on this site at all. Well personal gripe aside, I envy your skills. Wonderful contrast, gorgeous eyes, and lips. That netting must have been a pain in the back. But yeah, altogether a very sweet image. You should be proud (that is if you aren't already).
