For an oil painting I'll be working on this summer. I think it needs more texturing, but the thing is, most pictures of him are so low quality and small that it's hard to do a properly detailed picture. D: Also, the nose is off, blah blah blah. Still, it served the main purpose of getting me used to the composition and what kind of value scale I want to use.

Try getting a textbook maybe? Those might have better pictures of him. >_>

I just love the shading on his hand and his cloak :)
