Description 'He is Duncan MacLeod, the Highlander. Born in 1592 in the Highlands of Scotland and he is still alive. He is immortal. For four hundred years he's been a warrior... a lover... a wanderer; Constantly facing other Immortals in combat to the death. The winner takes his enemy's head and with it, his power. In the end there can be only one. May it be Duncan MacLeod, the Highlander.'

An airbrush painting of Duncan MacLeod of the Clan Macleod portrayed by the Actor Adrian Paul, a very talented man in a very good series that despite the horrible turn for the worse it took is still a cult favorite.
This was done entirely digitally and is my first airbush work on a single layer canvas.
This took me about 16ish hours and based off a promo photo of Adrian Paul for the Highlander series.

Semi-unrelated side-note, while drawing this I mainly listened to Queen, The Braveheart OST and The last of the Mohicans OST.

Absolutely stunning. (And the art's nice, too!) hahaha- This is seriously some bad a$$ work. My signature quote's from season 4-- it's ALWAYS awesome to find a fellow appreciator of Mac!

Holy shit.
When you said you were doing your Grimdark OoT thing, I assumed you were a standard semi-stick figure webcomic artist.
This is badass. Well done.
