FINISHED: True Blood_Eric Northman

[scotty]

Here is a "work In progress" look at a drawing that I am currently working on. This is another practice drawing to help me tone up my artistic skills after not drawing for so long.
I still have several commissions that I am working on also and I want to make sure my skills are in top form before I finish those drawings so that my customers get my very best (which they deserve ;D )

This drawing features portraits of Alexander Skarsgård as
The Vampire "Eric Northman"
from the HBO series "True Blood"

This is the cleaned up underdrawing...the next step will be to add color

Drawn with No.2 Graphite pencil and white Prismacolor pencil on strathmore colored paper.
Size is 11" x 18 1/2"

So far so brilliant! ;D Once again you captured the likeness and personality very well, and I cannot wait to see it in color.

Thanks Shaz and Lior for the wonderful comments. I always appreciate your feedback and ideas ;D

Here is an update for my drawing
featuring Alexander Skarsgård as The Vampire Eric Northman as seen in the HBO series "True Blood".

In this update I have worked on defining and adding color to the smaller "action" portrait of Eric, I have also started blocking in the background colors.
in this stage the drawing is still very rough. The next step will be to work on the large portrait of Eric and then add details and highlights to the background which will bring both portraits together.
