I drew a self-portrait, today.
And
here is the base image.
I know it was really over-worked in some places... and underworked in others... but whatever. Overall, I'm pleased with the result. :) It makes me happy to see that I have potential for realism.
I'd say it was about a two to three hour effort.

*Edit 8:10pm* I made some adjustments to the drawing before turning it into my art class, and I actually am pleased with it, now. I fixed the nose, mouth, and the shading on the chin and cheek. I'll try to scan it in when I get it back... which will hopefully be soon (i.e. a couple of weeks).
