Sketch of Andy Whitfield as Spartacus.

Really gonna miss him in that show, damn shame his cancer came back. Will do a few drawings of him and try them on ebay, see if I can raise some funds to donate to cancer research.

Working up from the previous sketch, face almost finished, though I have to see it in daylight to see if the shading is right. Working under electric light at night is usually fine, but the character of a drawing can change a lot in daylight the next day.

And then, the drawing of the endless strands of hair. Though I think I might cheat with the hair on this one a bit. Because I think she might suit a looser half-complete suggestion of hair. But. I shall see.

And the finished piece from the previous sketch.

Pretty happy with how it turned out. I think I've almost captured the gentleness of touch I was aiming for.
