Yes, I'm aware that the hands are not the best. I don't know what it is, but when it comes to hands, 99% of the time I end up with something I'm not too happy with. I'm also aware that my drawing does not look much like the original photograph. There are so many mistakes on this that I'd rather not mention, but just let you know they exist anyway.

But overall, I'm pretty satisfied with this drawing. This one was small enough for me to scan, so I don't have to upload a bad quality picture. Thankfully, unlike my other drawings, this one was untouched by photoshop (except for a cropping) since I was able to scan it (with my other drawings, since bad quality photos were taken of them, photoshop was required to match what they actually looked like as best as I could). Surprisingly, I'm able to put a lot more detail than I thought into a small piece of paper, so maybe I'll do more stuff like this in the future. Well, for now, here's my latest drawing, and I hope you like it!!!

ALSO, as with all my other drawings, please keep in mind that I am 15 years old before you look for perfection. I don't mind constructive criticism, but please don't go all hater on me. Thanks!!

P.S.: I think it looks better in real life; so sorry you're not able to see it!!!
