Sketch with ballpoint pens and witeout (sorry about that). For some reason, I couldn't get a likeness and got myself into a hole.

Reference photo: Try to draw me?

Sketch in ballpoint and witeout. Had to use the whiteout to reposition the nose and mouth, and it has a tendency to produce a blue tint. As a result, I had to make the picture grayscale.

Reference photo: Please, draw my mum. She would be really happy!

Quick sketch with a Bic ballpoint pen. Didn't put too much effort in rendering the hair because I just didn't have the time. Actually, no, I just didn't want to possibly mess things up.

Ballpoint pen sketch. I actually don't mind blurry pictures. If the likeness is not there, then it's no big deal.

Reference photo: All I want for Christmas is to be krumpus.. Can someone draw me, please! :)

Mostly ballpoint sketch. I dug out the old washable marker for the hair (less work on the pen).

Pencil sketch. Yeah, I guess I could have spent more time on the hair but it's just too much work.

Here's an animated gif thanks to depthy.me:

A little ballpoint sketch.

Reference photo: RDG has piqued my curiosity. Would anyone like to draw me?

Ballpoint portrait sketch. I went for a clean look with tight line work. It's about as clean as it's gonna get since I have a tendency to restate a lot and dilute the lines. Remember that this is a ballpoint sketch so there's no room for error since you can't erase (Why would you want to erase anyway when sketching?)

Reference photo: This is me from a fun photoshoot. Please draw me? :)

Sketch that's full of scribbles. I think I went overboard with this one, but I just love to scribble with the ballpoint pen.

Reference photo: Can I be drawn, please?

Ballpoint pen sketch. It was done rather quickly but it's no excuse for what I did to the hair (in particular).

Reference photo: Not a great quality but, can you draw me please ?

I drew a rudimentary depth map in depthy.me and saved the animated gif below. Another nice time waster.

Full disclosure: I had made an earlier attempt, but I made the huge mistake of going a bit crazy with the shading. The shading is not the only problem, just saying. Paper is long gone but scan will be there forever, I think. That's the power of the ballpoint pen. You screw up, you start again because you can't erase, and you get something completely different the second time around (slightly better, I think.)

Earlier attempt.

Ballpoint portrait sketch. Looks more like a bowler hat than a Brodie helmet, eheh.
