... It's noon, I haven't slept all night, and I still can't sleep. So I've just spent the last 2 hours finishing this pic (while listening to OotP, and seriously, can you love Sirius more? Especially indignant!angry!Sirius.. <3 Anyway...), which I've had in the works for a while. Partly for my own pleasure, partly for ~zandan's pleasure (and, probably/hopefully, ~BohemiaLMM, my love).

Hugh Laurie in the role of Dr Gregory House from the series 'House MD', from which the title is a quote. I wuv Hughie. And I wuv House. Vewy wuvvable. ^^ Okay, so that's another drawing standing in line that I had to finish... Now I have to finish Manley Pope...

*great big ginormous yawn* ... I need sleep.

Er... Like... Okay, loads of hours, like, round 10 or somethign, I have no idea... PSP7, 2 layers; one for guidelines, one for drawing. Referenced of course, of a pic found at House MD's page here: [link] ... I like this way of drawing. Gives it a nice texture, and it's fun. His beard and his hair was a pain, but not as much as you'd think. And... Seriously, my brain's on strike, I can't type anything more.

Hope you all like! :blowkiss: *goes off to try to get some sleep*


ETA:

I really appreciate all the love for this, so this is a collective thank you for all the favourites and wonderful comments. <3 Also, this has more than 5 times as many favourite as any other in my gallery. And honestly, this isn't my best work.

*** If you like House drawings, I have a better (and newer) one here, that almost isn't favourited at all. -> [link] <- ***

This is amazing. It looked like a photograph on the main Devart page!
While I think the whole thing is just cool, the shadows and highlights on the shirt are by far my favorite part, along with the stubble.

Harold: How is that not the worse news?!
Kumar: The laptop situation really only affects you, whereas the White Castle situation affects us both equally.

He's such a cool actor.
My favourite part of this has to be the brushstroke/texture of it. I like how it's sketchy, but quite tight and absolutely bursting with detail. The lighting is really well done, and so are the varied materials. : ) It looks exactly like him too. Wonderful!

Thank you! ^^ The sketchy yet... well, completeness of it is what I like about that style. Plus, it's easy and fun. :)

Thanks for the fav! :glomp: I'm fond of the stubble too. It came out very well with not too much effort. :)
