^^Not at all. Tell you the truth the technique you used to make George’s eyes shine distracted me from looking at the whole portrait 
. After another look I think the perspective looks just right including the shadowing.

Hehe, yes, that was rather good, wasn’t it? 
I paid special attention to his gorgeous peepers (at risk of ignoring the rest
) so it’s fitting.
And as long as you don’t compare it to the reference photo, it looks great

Yayyyyyy Paul! 
This is part one of yet another draw-off between the esteemed @Mademoiselle Kitty >^..^< and I. Hers will be along sooner or later (probably later).
I do believe this is one of my best efforts… though it was even better before I got a smut on his cheek 
I tried to fix it but it left a smudge. Oh well. (RP) Sideways no more!

Ooooh, he’s gorgeous, @Beatlebug 
I’d say it’s one of your best. Your lines are getting much softer. Very well done!
Mine will be later, I fear. It’s been too dark to draw today. I’ll do it as soon as the daylight is sufficient.

I do concur 
What surprised me was that I as able to finish it in such a short time. Usually I tweak it for days, but this one was complete in under an hour. I’m improving every day!
And I’ve more…
My grandparents gave me a book about George full of lovely photos (nothing new in the text, of course, but there were many pics I’d not seen), and when I saw this one, I just had to draw it:
And I started this one months ago but only just finished it (FI):
Edit: Damn, I drew him righty! What a stupid mistake! 
*bangs head on wall*
When I get back home I’ll do proper scans. Sorry about the sidewaysness!

This one came out pretty good, I think, despite the weird perspective (again; what is it with me and weird perspectives?) Unfortunately, when I cleaned up the background, a smudge *happened*, as smudges will. (RP)

It doesn’t feel complete for me until my Silly little tradition has been performed, but it’s heart-warming to know someone else think so too.
It makes me smile to make you smile.

You make my art seem like stick figure crayon drawings done by a four-year-old. 
Oh well.

I shall probably do larger, more detailed drawings of them at some point– I quite like the idea now. Thanks, SS?!

Anyway, here’s the original drawing (I cropped and changed the values for my avatar):
It makes me smiley every time I see it — though as usual I’m not quite happy with the perspective (after the third #@%ing day of redrawing it, I decided that, like George, ‘I Don’t Care Anymore‘), it’s the effect that counts. (RP)
