Description Charcoal on Paper

Merlin played by Colin Morgan from BBC's Merlin

Merlin : Hey Frances, this isn't fair... Why is Arthur drawn all light and happy, and I look like someone just died?

Frances: Well well, merlin, I really didn't intend for it to happen this way, see you were going to get a nice little 45 minute sketch too at first,

Merlin: But what happened,

Frances: To be honest your face happened, you see, its actually been a really really long time since Ive had this much trouble drawing a person

Merlin: Trouble?

Frances: Yup, its only through perserverance you get a picture at all, Infact I tried to draw you three times before this, so but the time I started the fourth one, I wasn't in a happy mood, therefore no happy picture.

Merlin: Oh...***sad face***

Frances: ..... Fine... round number five it is....

Very atmospheric and emotional, I really love it. It feels as though you've captured a fleeting moment and any second now he's going to move and turn...

I like it! It's been a while since I've seen a grungy picture of colin, it's actually rather refreshing to see something different.

Oh my god, this is sooo awesome! You did a really great job with his face. It looks exactly like him. And I love how dark you made the background, and how his hair blends into it... this is really beautiful
