Description You smile, but you cry
on the inside
You live, but you die
on the inside

You want to feel good
on the inside
And feel how you should
on the inside

I know how you bleed
on the inside
You want to be freed
on the inside

Gorgeous work! I don't know much about his insides, but his outsides remind me of Jensen Ackles. I mean that in a good way.

This is wonderful! I love how you painted his inside instead of his outside too.. that's really interesting.

... (stunned silence) ...

Where to begin? This is so powerful. As usual, your lighting and technique is superb. I'm in love with the texturing and little details of the skin and the hair; especially how you captured the fainter hairs at the top of the beard. I think the powerful feeling is from the slightly raised eyebrow and the intense look. Wishing...I...could...zoom...in...[!]

The only thing I might suggest, is that since the lighting on the face is so strong, it seems like there should be something of the inside of the cloak showing. A tiny bit of shadowed fabric texture, perhaps.

In all, I absolutely love it.

Zooming is now possible

And thanks so much for the comments!!
I agree with you on the cloak, lightened it before, but I couldn't get it properly lit, so decided to keep it this way (for now at least)..

Thanks for the zoomβ€”now I see even more careful details along the jawline and mouth. I'm very impressed!
