Description Oh tommy guns. I love them. Tommy loves them. Too bad he's stuck in a time where they're already obsolete. He still insists on looking like the gangsters of old times, though.

I had much fun with this, although by the time I was coloring the fireplace I couldn't wait to be done with it already! I really need to learn how to enjoy doing backgrounds. But still, I was able to try a few new things, so it's all good

One can never refuse a hot mobster (in the classic pin-stripe suit) with a tommygun. The red & black color scheme (I always see those as the Mafia color scheme) and the lighting is amazing; I'm also very fascinated with the details that you've put into the folding of his shirt, the frame of the fireplace and the lamps on the wall. Fantastic work!

Amazing ^^ He looks like in a gangster movie
The best aspect in this work, in my opinion, i the way you dealt in coloring a char in a place lit by a fireplace and some lamps ^^ The colors and effects, like the reddish tint, comes out great ^^

The whole ambiance gives me that idea.

Really, doesn't he look like a guy who would empty his gun on you for the littlest reason?

I totally share your opinions on backgrounds.... which is why I'm struggling with working up enthusiasm for my own work.

This is a sterling job, loving the colours, composition and the lighting is wonderful x
