Belle

(because his expression is so full of suffer!)

Laaaaate birthday gift for ! And a drawing challenge / skill boost of a year.
It's really a great improvement and my best artwork ever so far. Even better than bald Vader (daniela-chris.deviantart.com/a… )

I guess you will recognize the character.

Tools: Adobe Photoshop CS6, Bamboo Fun A5. And a single rough brush XDDD
Time taken: around 11-12 h, I couldn't keep track as accurate as I'd like

UPD 2014: worked a bit at his face shadows, now the face looks more whole. And that cheekbone doesn't look so extreme.
