Recent Drawing Fails

I'm not going to lie and feign false modesty and pretend I think I can't draw at all. I know I can draw...things. They're just not exactly the things I'm copying from. Here are two recent examples.

Aladdin and Jasmine (balcony scene in Aladdin)
Close...but not quite right.

Next...an actual person. I stay away from doing portraits of famous people because since you recognize the face it puts more pressure on you while you're drawing and then when you're done you can really tell whether or not you've got it right.

Leighton Meester based on the cover of Allure

Similar...but no. Sigh... Still, it's better to challenge yourself than to stay safe and just keep drawing flowers, right?
