Description Just a few pencil studies of Colin Morgan, who plays Merlin on BBC. He just has such an interesting face, with those ridiculous ears and cheekbones, ha... I can't stop drawing him... Expect more? >_>'

His face really is not one of the usual ones.

Your sketches are really realistic and it was a good idea adding colors

I was just looking for a reference for a certain type of nose and I breezed right past this but I had to click the previous button because I knew it was him. my mom is completely obsessed with this show. Had to comment because I was like, "Oh, my gosh! That's Merlin!" Very good drawing.

Yes. Yes, this is true. His face is awesome. The four main characters all have really good faces to study. For instance, Bradley James' eyebrows... Not sure why. Ha.

MysticSteph [2011-06-29 04:25:31 +0000 UTC]

Awesome sketches : D
I especially love the 3|4 front one because of the softness that comes out from it (or maybe the wonderfully made lips too)

I also tried to speedpaint his face a few times on photoshop, but this guy is hard to draw xD

What pencil did you use to draw this? It doesn't look like the usual ones, the lines are so smooth!

whimsycatcher In reply to ChoqueFrontal [2011-06-26 03:58:49 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! Oh, it was just a typical HB, but I do a lot of smudging and going over things, lol.
