I am absolutely overjoyed that you like it! My only painting of Vader thus far, perhaps no need for another after reading your wonderful comment
Thank you so much!

"perhaps no need for another after reading your wonderful comment"
Ha!! If I'd done a Vader painting that looked like this one, I'd quit too! lol! But you really should do more--I'd love to see you try one of him in the carbon freeze chamber from ESB, with all the hellish orange light... Oooooo... **tries to look innocent while shamelessly hinting**

Oh, alright lol
I was recently thinking of something like that for another one - Vader in the carbon freeze chamber from ESB.
Yeah, that lighting is definitely "Oooooo..." No other way to describe it

this is one of the most realistic pieces i have seen in your gallery! you came nearly perfect to the reference photo. the helmet especially, the hard work on it sure did pay off! i really don't see any flaws in this work

Thank you very much!
Getting Vader's helmet to look the way it really does has always been a bit of a challenge. For this piece I was actually satisfied with how it turned out. I'm so glad you like it, that alone makes the hard work pay off

your quite welcome
an artist's greatest critic is him/herself, and with this piece i can actually tell that you put quite a bit of yourself into it.

Yeah it's black and white acrylics with coloured pencils. The board is approx. 20" x 30".

It still looks like a photo to me. How long did it take you to do this image??

The pic probably makes it seem a bit more realistic but it is supposed to be a rendering. I wanted it to look as photo-realistic as possible to the reference photo:

It was while ago, but probably no more than 5 hours. The helmet was the most challenging part.
