Interesting assignment! I really like his body language and facial expression. This is totally what Hamlet would look like if he were a contemporary teen. Good job!

I adore this - and all this series! They're all very cool. I love Shakespeare - and most especially Hamlet.
I like the symbolism in the jacket - the coat and arms and the skulls. Very nice.
