La Moustache de Fer - Part Two

This is one of the first sketches I've done. Looks pretty cool. I think the legs need to either be beefier, or just exaggerate everything.

La Moustache de Fer - Part One

My latest project is a commissioned painting for my friend Adam, who asked me to create a painting for his girlfriend's birthday. The only criteria was that it include a mustache. So after a few conversations, we settled on a circus strongman as the subject of the painting. I've been doing some research on historical strongmen such as Ivan Poddubn and Louis Cyr. They are such great subjects, I might end up doing a series of strongman paintings.
