Ref is a paparazzi picture from a concert. He smiles better naturally than in photoshoots.

Materials used:

-carbon pencil for outline
-4b charcoal sticks only*


This portrait spanned well over 2 months. I think the actual time I used to draw though is less than 15 hours. I just didn't have a lot of inspiration so there was a lot of sitting and sighing on my part.

The hair sort of sucked major butt, but I really tried hard to capture his face more accurately, and I'm fairly please with it.

---------------------------------

Probably the last portrait I'll do of JunSu for a very long time, if ever again. I was delaying on posting this because it felt so 'final'--like a farewell to the fandom. That's what it is though, I think.
I was a big fan of his smile. It made me like his music and made me tolerant of his act on tv. Too bad that smile isn't the same anymore..


~So, bye bye JunSu, and thank you for the wonderful inspirations and the music (when I was a fan of it). Unfortunately, my taste outgrew you as an artist and idol, so I guess this is where the fandom ends for me.~

Anyhoo, I totally went off there? lol

* I almost never use graphite, for the few of you who msged me before. ^ ^;
That's why my portraits aren't very sharp and defined. I prefer them this way..

PS: This is for the JunSu Birthday Project over at TVXQprojects forum. If you'd like a copy, feel free to ask and I'll send it to you.
