As usual, you are forbidden to compare it with the reference photo

I’m an adult now! I can do what I want, thank you very much.
The original definitely looks a lot more like a photograph, while the drawing looks like someone tried to recreate the original with a pencil.

I love the way you captured this sad/melancholic look on his face – it’s definitely my favourite of your drawings so far!

A Little Bit More Of ‘…and things’!
.
I was playing this yesterday and remembered (after having forgotten) how fun it was, so I decided to record it today.
https://soundcloud.com/user-54…..04/s-PjOjK
Pardon the voice breaks, that was the fourth take and I was having a wee bit too much fun. 
I did my very best to sound thoroughly pissed, but I’m afraid my voice is still too pretty to be truly vitriolic. 
This one is slightly dedicated to @WeepingAtlasCedars, who loves this song as much as I do. 
A clean version of ‘Blackbird ‘ (which I’ve attempted multiple times) — New and Improved with Less Mistakes! 
And finally — this is not a Beatles song, but I hope you don’t mind my sticking here anyway, since the majority of this post is Beatley.

Offline Wow, thank you @Beatlebug for sharing your covers, that were beautiful ten minutes or so I just had listening to them (totally agree with sir walter).
To be honest, *prepares to get crucified* I liked Unintended best. The way you sang especially the high places was heartbreaking, that’s how beautiful it was.
But the rest was really good too and the guitar sounds so warm when you play it!
If you don’t mind, I’ve got one tiny little question: Will you also cover a song in which you play electric guitar once?

AWWWW THANK YOU SO MUCH! I can’t take credit for my beautiful guitar, I just put new strings on it is all — it’s the guitar that sounds gorgeous. (Actually, can’t really take credit for the timbre of my voice either. It was genetically determined. I can take credit for the singing, though, and will 
)
I can’t blame you in the slightest for liking ‘Unintended’ best. That is one of my absolute best songs and it suits my voice like it was meant to be.
And I will ABSOLUTELY record something with Sadie soon! It’s just that I’ve been playing her a lot lately, so I thought I needed to get back to Martin. Plus he’s easier to record as the sound is coming from the guitar itself and not the amp…

Glad to hear that; it makes me cringe slightly, as I know I can control those notes if I try, but I will, of course, be my own harshest critic.

Those are absolutely beautiful recordings; I agree with sir walter that I could listen to them all day! Though, for some reason, I’m Looking Through You and Unintended couldn’t be found. 
Keep at the awesome work!

Thanks all for the kind words; I’ll surely be back with more!

I’ll update this post later when I give a listen to them.
EDIT: @Beatlebug, are you planning to become a professional artist!? Combined with Wish You Were Here, these are AMAZING! The Blackbird cover has certainly improved from last time, and the Unintended song was quite cool as well. You’ve just earned yourself a SoundCloud follower!

Well, since I can’t imagine myself having a boring job and there’s nothing I love more than making music, I guess so.
Combined with Wish You Were Here, these are AMAZING!
Awww thanks! It means a lot.
This one is dedicated to @Dark Overlord, wherever he is now, since he loves that trebley bridge-pickup Strat sound so much.
