Description Sketch commission for

Alek

He is a young slave from the country of Niejdan and Nibel. Slavery is something hard in their kingdom, without any escape – it’s impossible to free someone from slavery. Alek feels a lot of rage and hate against his country. Vindictive, he has this strength inside him, this “flame” in his glance. In fact, he is not exhausted, disillusioned and resigned like other slaves, he still has hope; and hope can be a terrible weakness.

He is 14 years old (but because of his hard life, he seems mature and a bit older, around 15 or even 16 years old) and has a normal appearance. He has black hair, black eyes, white skin. For his haircut, it could be something half-short.

Graphite sketch - following basic character details. Result is portrait.

what I learned during making: battling with few angles and approaches on portrait techniques... maybe in future...

Media: office paper, graphite pencil B and B3, format - A5 (folded A4)
music: Pogo - SkynetSymphonic

He doesn't look 14 to me, or 15, or 16. Nice portrait, I really like the shading, especially the hair.
