Holla, it's been a while. Couple of days ago I've watched The Last Samurai for like 3rd time and of course, I had to draw the main character played by Tom Cruise - Nathan Algren. Having 1 month break didn't exactly help since I had no idea how to draw the hair correctly for an hour or so - I had to redo the entire drawing at some point. The final result is much better and I'm quite satisfied with it. It seems that having a short break can bring its benefits as well - from now on I have some fresh and some new ideas on how to start specific aspects of the drawing such as hair and face shading. Due to that, my style is like a hurricane - it constantly changes (I know, crap comparison lol).

Time: 15 hours
4H, 5H, HB, 3B, 4B, 6B pencils
0.3, 0.5 and 0.7 mechanical pencils
Paper stumps and tortillions
Tissues
Kneaded Eraser
