Description Everything seems to revolve around the perfect these days (...though I suppose its equally possible that perfection was the currency in days past, however their perception of it might have differed from ours lol) but I wanted to look at how a pic might work of the 'profile picture perfect' of our so-needy-social-networking-sites can be stripped away to something convention has taught us is disgusting... !

I have to admit, this has turned out far more cartoon-y than I had really hoped :/ but I guess that's prob more to do with the fact I spent more time writing than I do drawing lol

Watercolour and pencil! I apologise for how faint and...well watery it looks here - so disappointing for how full of life it looks to me D:

(Uh, and the squares are supposed to be pixels -- and yes, I probably did make a few mistakes on the musculature >.> be it interms of placement and texture, if so, my bad!)

(Dear, dear irony!)

I think you did everything great!!! The pixilation (sp?) you did diagonally across the pic was amazing and really helps to show the separations of what's outside and underneath! The coloration is great! and no worries about the muscle tissue! I'd totally flop if I tried to do what you have done. Confusion major on my part ^^'''' Love the crazy hair do too! The shading is great there as well! Overall great job there DoT! XD
