baukjespirit: really fantastic work! it's been fun watching the progress, seeing a painting done step by step always teaches you something - or maybe the lazy slob in me just loves to see others work :hehe

A nice character study! I don't know the actor but I seems like I would recognize him if I saw him now.

This is amazing right down to the ragged sleeveless flannel shirt.I can't believe they killed off his brother and Adrian!
I think if you make the hair a tiny bit longer you would have it pretty well down pat.I can recognize him and did right away from the painting.Very well done.You even have his Busse combat survival knife strapped to his waist.His signature crossbow on his back also.

All in all well done.

Nice! It's been enjoyable watching the WIP's unfold.

I also need to learn to draw clothes properly. You did a really good job with his.

I didn't really like his brother, but indeed his death was really unexpected for me.. The scene when he was sitting in the car with all the walkers around just before he got killed was funny though haha :mrgreen:

His hair is about this length in season 1, that's the reason why I kept it a little shorter

You are a very gifted individual.
