Breathe

One of those cases where what was supposed to be a quick doodle went right and then took on a life of its own, eating up most of my afternoon and evening. Started with just a face, a female face no less (I think it's a boy now...) and ended up with... this. My dad said it's got kind of a Polar Express vibe. My mom just thinks it looks like that guy from Fallout Boy.

I didn't decide on that extra backlighting until it was almost done and I think it shows, but that's still gotta be one of the best faces I've painted.
