20 MINUTE - SPEED DRAWING CONTEST ๐
Life seems but a quick succession of busy nothings.

Hello fellow Steemians! I would like to present a quick drawing I did for the Speed Drawing Contest hosted by @cookiespooky. Thank you for hosting it, and thank you @zeroooc for convincing me to give this a try.
I don't have to much to show in terms of process, since I drew it in just under 20min, but I will share what I have. I picked a random Googled image I liked and used it as my reference (As suggested). Overall this was actually awesome, and I had a lot of fun drawing this.
My Entry:
My Reference:
All Rights reserved of course to whom ever might own this photo (Peter Lindbergh if I look at the bottom of the image), I merely used it as a reference and lay no claim to the original image. This is of course a beautiful photo, and I am thankful that I found it on my random Google image search.
My Tools:
Wacom Intuos Pro Paper and Photoshop (Pencil Tool)
^ Here's a little proof that I drew it. ^
Thank you for reading!

Actually like your version better than the original photograph.
I'll take that as a big compliment, thank you very much. Much appreciated! :D
nice one @skippyza...
love how you retained that "punch" on her eyes in the drawing!
BUT (there has to be some critique)
the drawing lost a lot of the femininity, looks almost androgynous... not sure what it is exactly... i think the fact that she lost that faint smile from the photo plays into that a lot?!
Thank you @fraenk.
And I see what you mean, there is still a bunch of stuff that I would change, but I limited myself to the 20min as per the rules. One eye is darker, than the other, nostrils are a bit to light, etc. :P
And I see what you mean, I suspect it's the harsh cheekbones I drew, and I did lose that faint smile. Very nice observations, and great feedback. :D Thanks again!
Dude I'm stoked that worked out so well for you! Good luck :)
For the horde!
Well thank you for suggesting it, and of course... FOR THE HORDE! :D
Wow! Well-drawn my friend.
