Photorealism - Marilyn Monroe

Description

We've been working with photorealism for Arts in school for... uhm, two weeks. We have another five weeks till the deadline so I'll have to make a second picture ^^; But I'll survive.
I sure hope other people agree on that this looks at least a little like Marilyn Monroe ^_^ In any case, this was great fun to work with and I'm pleased with the result though it's not perfect. I'm learning...
The hair was a PAIN, I tell you .__.' Really, really painful...
It's all in graphite anyhow. And as tall as an A3, slightly broader.

I can't for my life remember what book I found the photo in .__. But... oh well...
And YES, the quality sucks because this is larger than A3 so there was no way on Earth I'd manage to scan it... The original is SO much better >_< The contrasts are greater and it's just generally... better...
Damn lamp.

This is quite amasing...

I can stare at the details forever! They looks so real! O___O
And her hair... dear GOD her hair!
