why so tiny?

So I've seen lots of people doing miniature portraits and I thought I'd give it a try..

I now have great respect for anyone who manages to pull this off brilliantly - I knew it would be a challenge but I discovered that yes, it's pretty darn hard.

Oh well, first try (and not even that small! it's compared to a 10 pence piece in the photo!) but hopefully with more practice (and patience) I will improve.

_{I hope people can vaguely recognise who it is? :/}
