    The likeness isn’t great, but I enjoyed dashing off a sketch of this guy. Full of character and worth a revisit!

      I think you got the sort of sour and drunk character of the eyes and the mouth pretty spot on. Definitely nice work!

          Haha yeah, I prefer drawing those kinda faces to the pristine young ones. Having a lot of blemishes and wrinkles makes it easier for me to orient myself and distracts from imperfections with values etc. It is a bit of a crutch tho. Really like your 2nd try btw!
