We did some drawings of our players once. I did one of Joe Hart. It's hung up in BBC's pantry. I'll see if I've got a pic of it anywhere. Give me a minute.

I didn't have any lessons or anything. when I was a kid all I did was draw.
A misspent youth you could say lol. I've never tried to sell them before but a friend said I should. Getting married next year and thought what could it hurt?

boac

drawing guy: I'm not sure if it's intentional or not but work on your perspective and proportions.

Also don't smudge shade, it looks ugly.

And in your original picture of Balotelli only the middle one bears any resemblance to him. The left looks like Samuel L Jackson and the right Shaun Goater. Don't try to copy pictures of famous people, draw from life initially. Take a life drawing class if there's one near you, they're lots of fun and you get to see naked women and pretend you're being highbrow. Also the occasional wrinkly old man cock and balls, but they're fun to draw.
