That you are happy is a wonderful thing. I love the way his hands eventually turned out, and I'm so glad they really draw you because I spent forever getting them the right size. Dear Richard really does have some large hands on him! But they really are a big part of what makes that pose so interesting. Well, that and the fantastic lighting (thank you Dale!), which illuminates his face so beautifully with the light reflected off the page. I had to leave off the glasses as they were just a bit beyond me this time around, but that's one of my next challenges, drawing Gaius with his spectacles. :D And the books, how much did I enjoy drawing the books? I even found excuses to put more in! LOL.
