# Cheers feller, I'm getting esp good at eyes now I think
I think I could maybe try drawing something totally original and out of my imaginings soon!

However, I'm getting requests from friends to do portraits of them or their loved ones, esp considering Valentines Day is coming up, which may keep me busy, and they probably won't be suitable for showing on here, tho I can ask if they don't mind, we'll see...

# Thanks again!
I do (as you can see in the GIF) always try to get them in early as then I feel I can see the 'life' in the portrait.

When I don't have so much spare time to do these I may try doing some less detailed ones as the earlier stages of chunky block colours are still recognisable and still look kinda cool, and of course, thy won't take so long to do, but I'm afraid I'm never quite sure when to stop and do rather enjoy the later 'fiddley detail' stages the most. But we'll see.
