Ben,

This work is absolutely one of the best things that I have ever seen done on TC, period!

I don't know where your planning on taking the small figure from these picture (cleaning up wise), but I would have a really, really hard time touching it further...it looks perfect as is!! His hair, expression, eyes, curve of the body, little rougher than standard Ben feel to the over all...I'm blown away boss!

Please post up, and stay in this mode for awhile.

It's kind of reminds me of a kids drawing in a way; please don't take this wrong...but, we quickly loose that fresh, free aspect on how we approach art when we were children, the line becomes more technical, technical, technical...then, we spend the rest of our adult life trying to figure out how to get back to that place where we were in our art as children....this ain't kids art, but the line work appears spontaneous, and fresh...like your hand just knew where to take this, and your mind kind of followed.

Ben, in my opinion, I believe you are starting to move beyond you. And that sir, ain't an easy thing to do.

I'm ready to start a bidding war with G on this one?
