brought this chap with me on my holidays,been on the shelf for a while, so as mixing some oils up for tintin thought I would give his face a go as well, once dry will go over adding more shadows and highlights and colours to his cheeks

[Steve Brodie]

more shadows and colour added along with eyes painted in;

Coming on nicely Steve.

A quick question if you don't mind..... He's got a crook on the right side of his mouth. Is that a facial expression or will something be going in there e.g. a pipe?

Keep up the great work.

you know, I thought he looked like someone but couldn't put my finger on it, but your right it's a very good likeness
