Description Yoyoyo I am so proud of finding titles that appear to be deep.   
I present you my OC: Gideon Lawrence.   
Consultant, counter spy and traitor.   

His left eye kills me, maybe I am going to overpaint it in the future.

Great work, I love his cheekbone (I love how high it is) Those eyebrows giv real depth to his character

Aw thank you very much indeed! Thehe, yes I also love high cheek bones very much. They let faces apprear to be very angular, and somehow I fall for those kind of facial features, ahahha. 
Thank you damn much for your comment :>

As always, you have this wonderful gift of being able to convey realism with color ever so elegantly. I absolutely adore the way you handle your shadows and contours of the face. Like Sewnflesh said, you have this uncanny ability to master simple, yet intense backgrounds that truly finish the piece. You always do such a lovely job, it's nice to see more of your OCs!

Oh wooow, it is a great honour to receive such a comment by an experienced artist as you. Thank you so much, I totally appreciate your comment and I don't even know to answer properly, ahaha. I am sorry for this.
Thank you a lot, my dear, it makes me really glad to read this.   
By the way, I hold an art raffle to somehow thank my watchers right here:

Would you like to join with one of your characters? They always look so interesting and it would be so nice to draw one of them. :>

Oooooh VERYYY NICE. Yet another stunning display of how well you can put white on white. I still admire how you can do that! I also always love your simple but strong backgrounds. They always give off such a nice atmosphere. I like his name! And counter spy AND traitor, hahaha whoaaa intense. : D
I LOVE the shape of his face and hair, and how detailed his face is. And the fact that he has blue eyes ahh. : >
And his uniform is soooo nice. I love the texture you put on the gold. I really should learn from how you use textures!

Geeeez thank you thank you a lot, ahhaha.   
Haha, I guess therefore he is a somehow precarious character.  
Uuuh that's great, I am glad you like his face! And ah yes you are so right, I also totally love blue or bright eyes, they are really beautiful. And I envy everyone who has them, ahahha. 
THANK you a lot for this compliment!
Ah! Actually it very easy adding textures this way. I just pick a dark colour and draw the shapes in which I want to have the golden highlights onto the painting. And then I add the texture by putting it into another layer over these dark parts, afterwards I set this layer with the texture to "lighten". But I guess it only works that easy this way, because nearly everything else in this picture is white. But that's it (oh my god I bet there are much easier ways in doing this, ahahah, but this method works relatively good).

He sounds like a cool guy lol. Lovely colors, and the face is beautifully detailed. If anything maybe the clothing could've used a little bit more detail/thickness, but very cool piece nonetheless : D

Wow, thank you a lot for this compliment! I absolutely appreciate it! 
Yes, you are right and the white parts of the clothing is one part of the picture that really annoys me, but I didn't know what to change about it (maybe adding a bit of texture to the clothes would make a difference!).
Thank you very much for your comment!
