Quick Studies, first of many

So in a pretty unbelievable stroke of luck, my Quick Studies class is not only taught by Craig Nelson, but also my Tomotsu Takashima. Holy frickin' crap, this class is awesome.

Anyhoo, I just figured I'd post a 60-minute study I did today. Yay for posting new work! Yay for a awesome semester! Now I just have to get all my crap together for my silkscreen class tomorrow!

Guess who this is?

I think I got the spirit of this guy. And yes, the background is a pretty dead giveaway, if your aren't a nimrod, but whatever. Done for Illustration 1 in photoshop and I didn't have the time to get super creative. Not 100% happy, but eh, maybe I'll work more on it when I come around (to it).

On a more serious note, the values on his face could be worked on a bit more, but alas.
