So for extension work, you can either draw a self-portrait or take a photograph of yourself (but it has to be of good quality). So I chose to take a photo, as it saves me a lot of time.

Here's how they came out :S and I'm not totally sure on them.

I really don't like the color one because it doesn't look much like me at all and it looks quite strange, but I'll post it anyways.

EDIT: I'll post the other one

I think I like these though, they look natural.

You are very pretty, Marcie (in addition to all those other really neat qualities!). But, how come you're not looking into the camera?

usually dead-on shots make people look like a serial killer

the one that you dn't like the colour on.. yeahhhhhh
it's a little green. take it to any photo editing soffware, and color rotate /change hue slightly.. that should fix that

Thanks guys :D

Thank you =] and there were pics where I was looking at the camera, but I didn't like them much. My art teacher said you are allowed to be in any position and facing any angle you want in the photograph :D.

Hmm.. I like the 4th one and the last one. Oh and the first one.
I can't seem to decide on my favourite out of those 3, they are amazing.

Composition is good and your editing on them is pretty good too. Second and fourth are my favourites :)

What?
None are drawings. I already said I chose to take photo's instead of draw a portrait.

I like the first one the best, I think mostly because it looks like it could be a drawing.
I know it's not but it's not a far stretch from one.
