Ben Cumberbatch in a peacoat. Who doesn't look sort of regal in a peacoat? Have we had this discussion before?

The halo isn't really significant, just that I tend to want to throw a halo on everyone I ever draw. It looks appropriate, and he seems like such a nice fellow, so. I regret nothin'.

It's rare that I have an image I want to put down and then just sit and do it exactly. It always feels like such an accomplishment. This is one of those, and it's something I've wanted to draw for years, not necessarily Cumberbatch, but somebody standing that way. Finally it's done, and I don't have to think about it anymore. :D


materials: ink, paper + PS8
music: Massive Attack, "Psyche (Flash Treatment)"

the halo is very appropriate for this picture because benedict is technically an angel... right?

The halo is lovely. I have been meaning to draw a portrait with a halo myself and have yet to get around to it. You've inspired me to get on that asap! lol

This is bloody gorgeous! *___* Especially nice job on the hands - people tend to draw people's hands too small or otherwise wonky.

Oh my God suddenly I don't even mind the sideburns! Bloody hell, you're a downright miraculous artist!

But how could you ever not love the sideburns? :D I am constantly encouraging my husband to lengthen his 'burns.

I don't know!! It's just not my thing, I suppose. ;)
Maybe because a friend decided to let his sideburns grow out and they... failed, to put it mildly. :XD:
