Cri du Coeur

Birthday/Christmas gift for . Actually, just birthday gift. I don't celebrate Christmas.

To Tanathiel:
I know it's [almost] a week early, but I might be busy on your birthday as it's my cousin's birthday as well. At any rate, I hope you like it. If you ever come visit me, you'll get the original copy sans editing. I heightened the contrast and whatnot more than normal in my attempts to get rid of that "white line" in the mouth that's not there in my drawing. *Edit*: Didn't work so well, so I used MSPaint to fix it [and delete the writing].

General:
Time: About nine hours, methinks.
Tools: Norcom paper, 6B graphite pencil, .5 HB mechanical pencil, white charcoal pencil, cue tips, and of course, erasers.

Oh, and "Cri du Coeur" means "Cry of the Heart"
