Description
This is a portrait of William Blake.I used a vague reference from one of his books to obtain his facial features. It wasnt color, so I am just guessing there.
This was mainly an attempt at color. It is a pretty rough sketch. See full view to understand what I mean. If you know Blake, you might understand the flames in the background.
Used Alias Sketchbook pro. I like this one.

I think that other dude was trying to say something like "you express yourself with the colors"... but i'm really not sure... heh
not sure if you were serious, but the atari is an old gaming console; as well as a video game company (makes games like Neverwinter Nights)
Anyway.
for being rough sketching I think you did well, as with the previous few you've been doing. Having done it in color seems like it brings everything together; makes it look a little less like a rough sketch and more like a full blown portrait.

yea, I know what Atari is, but he was talking about something else I think... I dunno.
Thanks for the comment.
