Description The other day my friend and I watched Thor and she remarked that Loki is unique from other Marvel villains because while you can see in their eyes that they simply ooze pure evilness, Loki's eyes had this permanently mischievous look in them no matter what kind of nefarious act he was committing, almost as if he didn't really mean them to be evil but as petty tricks (I know killing Coulson is NOT mischievous). And this is almost a measure of skill because apparently Tom is such a good actor that he can simply compress the character of a person into his eyes. I mean I read somewhere that he could have just portray Loki as a two dimensional villain but he choose to look deeper instead. I threw in Captain Nicholls because he had a 360 character change in Warhorse

Sorry this became an essay in my defense I was busy cramming for law and history which simply ask for analytical thinking and I'm still sort of trapped in that mindset And yes I'm so bias towards Tom Hiddleston so sue me

Tools used: hB and 2B mechanical pencils, sepia tone added digitally.

Though truth to be told it had been my friend who brought it up first and his eyes are one his most expressive features. Thank you

Oh no nothing can be noticed in the avengers there is too much happening in two hours but you can see it in thor, its slower paced there and in warhorse, even though he has a really short role in it he's such a good actor that it stayed with you for the whole movie. lol as you can see i'm a big fan and i'm not sure if i'm coming back this year but never mind i'll still help you buy if i really am not coming back we can find another way of sending them

I think big fan is an understatement i've sketched him so many times that i can draw him without a reference now
Or you could kill two birds with one stone and add books as part of your baby expense but thats far off into the future before your baby could read no i haven't but i will after my mid semester tests everyone's been lauding about it and i've seen so many fanart

With Tom it seems a very clear contrast because his personality in real life is the polar opposite of Loki's
