Those are fantastic, remind me a lot of the madonna sketches by Leonardo DaVinci. Good work.

Could you point me to those references?

[Gorbay]

for William Bouguereau paintings within a huge archive - www.artrenewal.org

other references are from Met Art photograph series. You can seek from search engines.

i like the first three portraits, they have good skin tones. I only got caught up on the fourth however, it seems just a bit too outlined around the chin. Other than that, i like how you render hair. good job.

you are right, 8B was the worst choice to give an outline on a hard paper. besides it won't accept any mistakes as if it's tar :)
