Description
okay another attempt at daryl from the walking dead. this is me trying to give the impression of dirt without actually drawing dirt. goal was to get the likeness right without a grid. it's a little off from the reference, but i don't hate it, so that's a good thing. i don't know why he looks like he's about to smile, because he's not in the actual one! hahai kind of like his hairstyle even though sometimes i can't decide if he's moulting.
this is the actual size, done on 1/4 A4 paper with 4B mechanical pencil. ~3 hours

His facial expression must be hard to draw - he always looks like ... hlaf smiling, half frowning... I like this character the best in the show. He goes through this into-Bear-Grylls transformation and ever since then he's badass. Reliable and no asking about crap.
Pretty cool drawing.

Thanks for the comment! I really appreciate his character as well. Like Rick and Shane, he likes to get things done, except his is survival in its purest form without any shady agendas. He's unlike his brother too - he doesn't put others down to bring himself up. I think Norman's description of his character is very apt - he's someone in need of a hug, but if you try to hug him, he'll stab you. Fierce, protective, yet for some reason inexplicably endearing.
