K. Now I know this isn't the sort of picture that's gonna get a lot of attention on here (my fault for just drawing horses all these years! :lol: ) but I thought I should upload it anyway as I'm pleased at how it came out.

This is an oil painting on a 20" x 20" canvas. Its of no one in particular really, just pieced together from several different references (he has Ron Paul's ears don't you know!). Came about as I was look at stuff by Rembrandt and thought "I want a go at that" and a so I did, and here it is! Yar. Not quite the same standard though :paranoid:

lol, "not much attention", and already over 100 faves? (my highest so far is 14... I think I don't advertise enough... but then I don't really care all that much about popularity).

What a character, seriously.

yeah, personally I don't really care as much about popularity as I do about making this a nice community :3 But I like art, too, so I'm not gonna stop XD
