Description **UPDATED** Rescanned with a better scanning setting. Now it looks just like the original drawing...at last.

**Full view please**

OK...this is the drawing that drove me nuts. I know it doesn't look that hard but it's more complicated than how it looks. For one thing I didn't have a good, clear ref to work from so I had to make up a lot of details. In the end I was so happy that didn't screw it (though if I look at it any longer I'm sure I'll see what I've missed ). The water droplets came out better than I thought, the ref pic only gave me the white dots.

His right hand looks blurry because it appeared this way in the ref screenshot. I believe it's off-focus due to the fact that he's moving it forwards or it's closer to the camera than th rest of the picture.

It took me a while to get the right red for the eyes. I went for the bright red at first but it looked too cartoonish. I prefered the red that didn't jump off the page but still visible. I think this red is just about right, what do you think?

Though I used a scene from the movie Dracula 2000 (with Gerard Butler) as the ref photo, my fav Dracula movie is the '92 version with Gary Oldman. However, this drawing dedicate to Count Dracula as the iconic vampire charactor in general instead of just one version specificly.

Wish there was more artwork of Dracula 2000. Not a great movie, but a good modern take on the story

What do you mean, "it doesn't look that hard"?! Are you nuts?! This is amazing and you clearly have so much hardcore skill that you don't even know how incredible you are! I'm serious, you've got Mad Skillz.

Nice work. I've just finished the book. It's far more there crazy because Dracula actually put Mina's face into a wound he did himself in his chest.

Number one, if mirrors and cameras cant capture his image, why can anyone draw it? Number 2, Gerard Butler was awesome in this movie. Number three, you are really good at drawing!
