I think I've done this wrong

You will have to upload it to a page like Photobucket or Picr and then use the IMG link for images. Or simply post a link to a site where we can see your drawing. Try again.

If you take away one of the [img] on each side it should work directly in this thread..

Looks great, good job! I agree: give Benedict a try!

Bingo!! Thank you for your help and feedback

I find it especially very difficult to draw drapes of cloth.
AND to draw a pencil sketch from a picture which is actually coloured.
You managed very well!!

Thanks mattlocked

I love the flow of fabric, though the patterning was difficult in this case.
Need better pencils though.
Now, to find a big enough and high quality pic of Ben...
