Description

My fav actor and fictional character from Marvel's "X-men: First Class"
I've planned to draw him for almost a month now, and now is a chance. Quite a challenge for practice but fun :) I love his eyes lol. Sometimes I just get lost if I stare at them for 5 seconds haha.

I've gotta say, this is the most complicated art I've ever draw because
1. His face was in the non-horizontal plain, and it took me almost half a day to draw. I struggled with human anatomy a lot on his face orientation and his arm, which latter didn't exist in the stock photo. I gotta draw it from my imagination!
2. Bluish tone made everything look dull.
3. Perspective drawing always difficult haha
4. I still don't know how to draw reflection on rippled water surface, even though I've already watched tutorial vid on YouTube, here: Link

Tool: W&N watercolor, 300g Canson fine face paper
Stock photo: James McAvoy on "X-men: First Class" movie poster and blu-ray cover

Awesome stuff. I agree the hand looks slightly too small but I can totally understand the difficulty in drawing it from memory! The rest is perfection!
