self portrait

Description

is it me or does my face look really creepy in this one
hm...

like i was saying to sunsetdeamon, i do a self portrait roughly once a year
just so then i can see the way how my drawing styles changed along with my face as i get older :]
and also apparently according to [link] its better to draw things from real life instead of a photo, because it makes you see more about form and shape and stuff
but since this pose kinda sucks lol and my face looks kinda fattish to me i think i'll draw from a photo next time xD
and because the light sources kept changing so i could only draw it at certain times which was annoying and why its taken quite a long time D:
and i moved my head so i think half my face is at a different angle to my hair and stuff lol
but yeah finally done woo
still not my favourite thing i've ever done though

i'll put all the self portraits i've done so far up in one deviation sometime too

constructive crit please i wanna know how i can improve drawing/shading wise

time: probably about 5 hours
used: HB + mechanical pencil + 2B
