LOL.
I've been coming up with all kinds of silly names for this.
Anyway, some thesis work for this semester! im going in a new direction 8D

so THIS. is kevin spacey, based on his AMAZING role in american beauty.
I used no direct photo reference for this, all compiled and 98% just from pausing on the movie when i needed some part of his face XD so WEE! ALL COPYRIGHT TO ME! XD

its really impressive that you did this without a photo reference. Although I think the tie should be faded off instead of being cropped off with a hard edge.

Query for you: are you in art as a career/freelancing/getting paid for putting your brilliant work out there?

Because if you're not, you totally could be. Not only are you super technically skilled, you have a real understanding of composition and colour, and what draws the eye. And if you are... well, congratulations! You deserve it.

This is kind of an awesome tribute to the film and the excellent Mr. Spacey as well. Cheers

I think the way you've referenced this, by not using any one picture, works to give a true likeness of the subject. You've not captured Kevin Spacey's image in one moment, but in a moment you've created & it conveys much more of his persona.

Beautiful concept too.
