This year for Self Portrait Day I went with a straightforward slouching full face SP. I was gonna do a major character piece with guns and muscles and everything amped up but it felt like I wasn't engaging in the spirit of the exercise. The idea of a Self Portrait is about observation and honesty about yourself. I can do a drawing of a massive bloke with a massive gun any old day, so I ended up producing the above SP in a few hours this afternoon.
There's loads of stuff I would like to spend longer on and I dislike leaving a final piece in b/w but I spent ages pissing around with the beard and I want to go draw a massive bloke with a massive gun now :P
