Tom Petty Final


So, after weeks struggling to figure out what to do with this, i decided it was time to "Nut up or shut up". I actually ended up flipping it upside down to finish it just so i wouldn't get hung up on little details of the likeness. i went for a slightly more simplified look than my usual stuff, but certainly not as far as, say, the lucy Liu caricature.

let me know what you think.

This is very good, mate. I love the simplified style, you inspire me to do follow the "less is more"-philosophy, especially in your way where the light seems to add a more geometric and pointy face and still get such a likeness.
Well done!
