wow, awesome job Carina!
I've noticed the intensity in Manu's face this year. You really got that in your drawing. He's as serious as a heart attack and I'm sure it's rubbing off on his teammates. Great work!
As far as I'm concerned, this is a snapshot portrait of Manu Ginobili. Very awesome
That's a sketch? Wow, awesome job! Looks just like Manu!![]()
You're right. I was too preoccupied with other details about the face that I got lazy once I got to the ball. Will work on that.![]()
And thanks to everyone for the lovely comments!
Honestly though, the sketch scares me a bit when I look at it for too long.![]()
yeah thats your best work yet imo tbh
How long did it take you to do this?
Not to criticize either, but...
If your going to actually do some editing, might I suggest just taking the ball out of the picture altogether? I think it takes away from the full effect of Manu's scowl not to see his chin or lower lip.
no, the ball should stay. that's the point of the pic... manu holding a basketball and glaring at someone.
great pic by the way, definitely one of your best, or maybe your best yet.
lol @ the point of the pic being "the ball"
Technique alone, this is your best. I'm really glad to see you found a denser pencil

not "the ball", MANU LOOKING OVER A BALL.lol @ the point of the pic being "the ball"
Out of curiosity, how long did that sketch take in total?
Well I'm not gonna try to pretend to know what the artist was thinking, I just made a suggestion of what I would personally prefer. If she also likes his face covered up by the ball then that's probably how the picture will stay.

Send this to Sean during the game. I can only imagine what he'd say.
Probably 3.5 hrs in total. Finished most of it for 2-3hrs the first night. Then I set it aside because I didn't like how it looked. Plus, it helps me to see the flaws better when I try to do the finishing some time later.
As Bender said, it was part of the original pic. People here know I work mostly from photos. So it's probably gonna stay that way. I just need to make it look more like a basketball and less like a bowling ball.![]()
Thats looks exactly like manu and an expression that he would make. Great detail and talent!
Below this sketch it should read:
I'M coming for YOU KOBE!!
One of Carina's earlier sketches for anyone that hasn't seen her work before.

Beautiful drawing.
Very nice. Just out of curiosity, did Manu's image hit the deck when you touched it with a pencil?![]()
