i think i first heard of Joan Jett when i was trying my ear at classic rock, garage bandom, etc, etc...
plus, i was into Guitar Wolf and Hide at the time, so american bands did come up. apparently, in a interview, one of the member of Guitar Wolf has a big crush on Joan Jett. whatever reason, i don't know, but it's interesting.
i also like her music in general, even after bands disbanding and forming the Blackhearts. She has a cool Orange County tat.
this took me about, 1-2ish hours on and off. (mainly 'cause i was watch xxxHOLiC at the same time) it turned out kinda light, so i tried to darken it in Gimp, clean it up. i think that using a B pencil was too light. or maye it's just meh scanner. references from this photo: [link]
i got lazy with the hair and jacket, since it was just black. and the eyes from the photo had a darker contrast, with shading. but my scanner probably killed that too. somehow, she looks less devious than the photo ( i kinda reshaped her nose and face a bit, to be less edgy...... didn't notice it until later. >,< )
