Thank you. Yes it is, particularly before Hamill's face was scarred. A youthful face is particularly difficult as you have to rely on the eyes and get the gentle contours of the face right. I almost lost this one, and it's helping me to gear up for the next portrait.

It's his mouth that drives me insane. he has very pronounced laugh lines and chin, so it's hard not to make him look like a jowly old man!

Same here! When I was just a teen, I used to draw SW characters all of the time, copying the comics and photos as an art student. Hamill's mouth is very distinct, and if you don't get them just right, they'll go out of alignment with his face easy! With this one, it might have been easier to find a production still instead of using a frame directly from the film.

True story.
Though I am reminded of the terrible Carnegie Hall joke...
