Work in Progress, Perhaps Eternally

I'm not really pleased with how this is coming along but I have spent way too much time noodling his face and I can't seem to get it right. I promised to post it though, so, here is my rather poor attempt at drawing Ryane Clowe.




He looks kinda like what he'd look like if he was somehow half Clowe, half illegitimate love child of Boyle. No, I don't know how that's possible either, but, there it is.

*reference image links posted soonish. I need to find one again. D'oh!

Wow -- great work. I know how tough it is to capture an NHLer's face; nowadays I'm much more of a cut-out-and-paste guy.

I like his concentration, though -- that's solid.

I can see the resemblance, lookin good. They need to make this half Clowe half Boyle a reality. Talk about a sweet ass scorer with veteran leadership and someone who I'd never like to meet in thew corners. Cloyle for Captain!

I heartily endorse this product and/or service!

Thanks Sleek. i think I may go back and approach this like I did Douglas Murray. I tried to go a little more realistic with Clowe and well, I think I should stick to my sketchy cartoons and scan them in method for a just a wee bit longer. His jaw and eyes are really throwing me off.
