  It's done!
  After I had finished the hair I finally lost every spark of motivation in working it over again, adding some more small details and correcting some mistake I've made. Maybe in the next few days/weeks I'll take the time...
  
  This one means a lot to me as it includes a lot of personal superlatives:
  -it took the most time to finish. I never even started paying attention to how long I sat down drawing
  -Before I started drawing I promised myself that this one would become the best drawing I've ever done and in my opinion I succeed. I'm very proud of the outcome and I'm confident, that everything is possible
  -It's also the biggest drawing I've ever done (size: see below)
  -Furthermore it's my most realistic (e.g. I used the circulism technique for the first time, to achieve a realistic skin texture) and has by far the longest "artist's comment"
  
  Some information about the drawing
  
  Size: A3 (~30cmx40cm or 11.7" × 16.5")
  Paper: Bristol Paper (about 300g/m² I think)
  time: eternity (honestly, I have NO idea biggrin.gif)
  Tools I used:
  -mechanical pencils 2B,HB,H (0,5 and 0,3)
  -graphit pencils and clutch pencils 4H,2H,H,HB,B,2B,3B,6B,8B
  -cotton pads/Q-tips/estomps for blending
  -3 sheets of copypaper to cover already finished (and unfinished) parts
  -normal and kneaded eraser and eraser stick
  -reference photo
  -Adobe Lightroom 3 to adjust the brightness and contrast to make the scanned version look more like the original drawing
  
  Yes, I'm a HUGE House MD fan!
