Description
I worked this up for the Design a Character group challenge of the week. "The Name Challenge"In this challenge we were given a character's name, "Galin Modric", and then asked to create whatever character came to mind from that name.
I see my version of Galin Modric as a victorian steampunk type. A diabolical inventor of gypsy descent, he works his craft with the vengeance of a mad man. Half Rasputin and half Gapeto he makes clock-work minions that will aid him in bringing the government to its knees and place him in control.
I thought it would be nice to do a subtle sepia-toned portrait of him. Found the ornate picture frame on flickr.com somewhere. No idea where though.
How'd I do? Do you like him?

Thanks so much for the warm comments. I realized that I could also submit this to the "Profile Challenge" unintentionally, but I've got some other ideas for that one cooking.

Thanks Rome! I'm really enjoying the challenges on DAC. You should join. It's great to get "assignments" again just like in art school.

Thanks! It's my first submission to DAC so I'm glad it was well received. I wish I had the time this week to put more work into the artwork and add more highlights/shadows but alas a full-time job has to come first!

Cool, I look forward to more of your submissions to the group.
This piece works well enough without colour, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.
And thanks for the fave!
