he looks better on your pic than in real life.. i think its because he has this really strange mouth and the asymmetric eyebrows. Nice work.

Wooaw, that is cool! Nice one above.

Could you extend his left arm out a bit as he is looking a bit squashed there and his left elbow seems to be a bit small. I know the ref. photo doesn't give you that info but try to estimate it a bit. You see the distance from his thumb to his pinky on the left hand. I think that the distance from his cufflinks to his elbow should be roughly that size.

As Nex says, nature has been a bit kinder in your version (no offence Ralph

). Even so, the identity is unmistakeable, a really good job.

[EDIT] - That thing I said about the distance from the cuffs to the elbow - that's not an art rule, it's just the only way I could give a scale measurement!!!

Thanks for the compliments guys. ceenda yea I agree about the arm thing I wasn't to worried about that, and didn't even pay attention to it. I was trying this as a speed exercise. But I'll fix it when i get home (not at my comp right now, as you can tell by the name). And he really does look funny on television which doesn't help him being elected, even though he is probably the best candidate...but i wont get into that now.
