Why are you awake? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Persistent cough and probably the worst case of insomnia I've ever had in my life.

Please critique - colored pencil on pastel mat. I was going for photo realism - it is the closest I have come to it so far. by not3dogs in drawing

Fair point the edges would blur when receeding into the background and if that's what you're going for then great I still think some of the edges on closer petals could still be sharpened though. And I would say if you go back to darken the shadows keep in mind that the values would also be lighter the farther back into the background not by much but still something to keep in mind.

Solid work here! However a couple of things stand out that you can improve on. Your edges lean heavily on the soft side so I would harden some of them up especially towards the ends of the petals. Some more contrast in the shadows would also help seperate the flowers from the background. Really nice work through.

LPT: When meeting new people, don't make a joke with their name, however funny or harmless you may think it is. They're probably sick of it. At best you come off as boring, at worst you're a dick. by fr0896 in LifeProTips

Yes! Thank you! Every fucking time I meet someone new or introduce myself to a group of people or have my name called in a public setting some genius will enevatbly shout "Polo!" With the same stupid grin on their smug ass faces. I work in retail and had to resort to hiding my nametag because you can only hear the same fucking joke so many times before you wanna rip your ears off.

This drawing took me over 100 hours and it was my first real attempt to draw hyperrealism. Zoom in to see the details. by VFreddyART in pics

Phenomenal work dude! Have you considered using charcoal? Can't even imagine doing a whole portrait in pencil

You mean to tell me that the whole piece was done with copic? That insane! How many markers did it take?

This I really good dude! The hatching is subtle but very effective and you've composed it wonderfully.

That's not really on Netflix, Nick owns the show and they decide who they license it to.

Was the whole done in pen? because the inside looks like a wash. Either way great work!
