Description
A quickish study from a screencap of Legend. I can't say I stuck veryclose to Tom Cruise's face/hair from that scene, but I kept it kinda close.
Anyways, I ended up liking the lines/sketch way more then the final
colored version. :T Hate when that happens...

That boy kept forgetting where he put his pants...

I think I agree about your opinion of prefrence, personally the line art seems to have much more intense expression because the dark eyebrows are such a contrast bringing out the eyes, hence the expression. I think it looses this quality a little with the colour.
Just my opinion though, either way its beautiful and charismatic peice of work

I totally agree with you! The shadow in the colored version takes some of the intensity out of his expression. It's definitely something to consider from now on! (: Thanks so much!!

I think its just because of how unnatural whites eyes look.
No problem

I don't remember if I ever watched this film O_o I must remedy!!
Anyway....agh, it happens to me all the time, I mean, the fact of liking the lines/sketches more than the finished colored version =____= But in your case I think the colored one is gorgeous! The burning lights and orange colors add a lot to the lines, it's very tridimensional.
And gaah, your men are aways so handsomeeee

Whilest I do love the movie, I see this as an original aspect of the character. Which actually is cool. I have been thinking more about these days; how people see their version of fictional characters. Lately all I see are people drawing the characters from movies like The Hobbit, Twilight, Guardians, Xmen and so on. Its nice to see peoples own version of characters.
I love this. As always, its a great pic. But then again, your art has never disappointed me.

You're right. Once people see a movie, they start simply depicting the characters as they are in that movie. It's instantly recognizable, but definitely not as creative. (: I guess it's more of a way of bonding with other fans, really. (I much prefer the dark-haired Faramir, myself... lol) And thank you so much~ I'm really happy you enjoy my stuff!

YES! Haha, it was way better than I remembered, though I saw it way back when I was little, so granted, I only remembered the devil and her in that dark outfit. x) lol Thank you for all those suggestions! I'm definitely gonna watch them all! Even the ones I've seen before I wanna watch again because it's been so long~

I haven't seen that movie, but just googled it, and... wow, young Cruise was kinda hot (I liked him in 'Interview with the Vampire' apart from that, but usually I'm not impressed by his charms
)
Still... the way you depicted him is way hotter
The man you draw, they're all just so... perfect and sexy your semi-relistic style is just rockin!

LOL Well, Darkness did certainly put on a good show. The makeup was amazing and of course, Tim Curry. lol I can't help but like Jack, though I think he could've been a stronger hero if he hadn't needed those fairies coaching him the entire time! lol

Irathis In reply to CrystalCurtisArt [2013-01-13 02:25:24 +0000 UTC]
Yes, his make-up was indeed amazing!
I know! Those fairies need to mind their own business. But on the otherhand, wasn't Jack raised in the forest? I don't think he could've done it if it HADN'T been for the fairies helping him.
