Description

I've just recently finished reading "Myself as Witness" by James Goldman. There is a character called William Longsword, who is the half brother to King John. I was so taken by the character that I thought I'd render him up in my own way. Enjoy: http://www.amazon.com/Myself-as-witness-James-Goldman/dp/0394419235/sr=8-1/qid=1164419070/ref=sr_1_1/102-7940994-2980151?ie=UTF8&s=books

I'll get to that book soon, m' lady! I swear it! I like the softness of the background, it adds to the pose. The look on his face is very serene. I love the skin textures on this and the laugh lines around his eyes. Very realistic. Great shot.

Nicely done...on a strangely curious side note, I am actually descended from William Longsword and earlier today I received my certificate from a society called the Descendents of the Illegitmate Sons and Daughters of the Kings of Britain. William Longsword, as you noted, was a half brother to King John, which is the nice way of saying bastard. It is through him that my family on my mothers side traces our lineage. I'll have the check out the book. Back to the picture itself....great textures and DOF...is it snowing behind him? Great job!
