Artist's Comments

I usually make measurements from my reference photos, but this time I didn’t. Think it kind of messed up the faces, not making measurements, but oh well.

I purposely left the clothes unfinished. Because I’m lazy, and because I needed to get this drawing done so that I could concentrate on other things (like homework, for example).

Anyway, I like the Costigan-Sullivan chase sequence in The Departed because it plays on the similarities of the two men. They’re dressed almost identically—cap, hooded sweatshirt, jacket—, and they’re both bright, ambitious guys from South Boston; both rats who just happen to have different loyalties.

It’s like the comparison made between Peter Parker and Eddie Brock in the upcoming Spider-Man III, which I’m really looking forward to seeing. :D

Are they from a movie or something?
Anyway, this is amazing like all your other drawings! Very realistic.
:iconammonen:
thanks so much! and yes, they're from The Departed, directed by Martin Scorsese. it's an awesome movie if you haven't seen it already.

Wow, and you did this with Mechanical pencils? That's nuts, my friend. Absolutely nuts. You could really get more depth and greater values if you invest in some heavier B pencils, but this is truly CRAZY-AMAZING to be done in mech. pencil. ... Is the one on the right Leonardo DiCaprio? If not, he bears quite a striking resemblance heheh :) :hug:
:iconammonen:
wow, thanks so much! you know, i actually do have a 2B mechanical pencil, but i get lazy---i don't like having to switch between my HB and 2B so much! ^^; but anyway, 2B was the softest/darkest mechanical lead that i could find (do they make 4B or 6B?)

and yes, the guy on the right is supposed to be Leonardo DiCaprio. :D
:icontwinket:
brilliant! would be great to see the rest done as well. :)
