Amazing! That must've taken you a long time to color and shade!! What did you use? It looks like colored pencils. The mixing of colors into gradients is really nice! I'm impressed!

read the comments under the pic - I show what medium I used :)

and yes as I recall this took way too lnog to do hahaha.. the most cumbersome is always the face for if you screw that up then the pic really is ruined..

I also forgot to colour his ear but noone has ever commented on that hahaha..

That's a "creative self portrait" ? :))

it's a "stylistic" one rofl :P
