Description
Decided to draw Al pacino as i found this odd but interesting photo of him and i'm really not sure why he has his fingers pointing at his eyes or a rubber band on his hand. This pic also was a good way for me to do big contrats between blacks and whites, which is something i need to really practice. I slightly changed the background from the reference pic as it was a litlle to dark and boring.The drawing was done on A4 Bristol Board paper using standard and mechanical graphite pencils.
Here are some of my other graphite drawings.

dude! Your portraits are really improving! The textures and the shading are outstanding! There are some subtleties, however, when I compare the picture to the original photo that could be improved... although I'm not sure exactly. Take a close look at the mouth and the angle of the eyes maybe?
well anyways, I'm adding it to my favorites! good work!

Good work over all...
Would like to see a deeper black and more range of value in the mid-tones and lights. A little reflected light in the shadow would help to turn the forms. Keep it up...
