Description Almost a whole month without a deviation? Shame on me!

Anyway, I've done this character before, but he's one of my favorites and so typically it's hard for me to be satisfied with my previous efforts.

Doctor Benjamin Westcote.


A little over 6 hours in Adobe Photoshop Elements.

Photo-reference of model Patrick Sullivan used for Benjamin.

If a man passed me wearing this, I'd probably pounce him. Lovely job.

Thank you so much. This is one of my favorites. But I have to admit the background was a lot easier than it looks since I used a stock photo and just ran it through some filters. Only Benjamin was airbrushed.

this is BEAUTIFUL. Absolutely stunning.

And captures the feeling of one of my writing characters that's floated around in my head for so long. XD

He's so mysterious and sexy!
Especially his cold-looking eyes. I think someone WOULD jump him in an alley. Or street.

But... do you Roleplay, perchance?
It would be interesting to Roleplay with one of these charactors. ^^

KimiSchaller In reply to Taska-Kano [2008-04-20 07:19:43 +0000 UTC]

I do. Most of these portraits in my gallery are RP character pictures for either me, a friend, or a commissioned character portrait.

Definitely like this one! I love the suit, looks great on him. It is rather a shame that people don't dress like that anymore. I rather like the look. Ah well...

Background definitely adds to this one, good choice on that.

I know. I wish they did. A victorian suit looks really really good on a man. :goes into dream mode:

Crap your study of the human body is exceptional .. I think this has to be one of your most life like pics :S I thought it was Keanu Reaves at first LOL .. this is so god damn stunning .. and he looks perfect in the Victorian Garb and the library amazing is an understatement thanks for the stock usage on this again hun

KimiSchaller In reply to CausticStock [2007-12-20 02:02:05 +0000 UTC]

I actually found a website that described victorian clothing so I was able to get it very accurate this time. I usually just sorta guess from what I've seen in movies, which I suppose is close enough since you have to assume they did the research. But I really enjoyed this one. I do love historical costumes.

Thanks for the fave!!

CausticStock In reply to KimiSchaller [2007-12-21 21:39:49 +0000 UTC]

Yeah there are some cool sites out there .. but yeah Hollywood is cool .. Bram Stokers Dracula is a good source as is Elephant man

KimiSchaller In reply to CausticStock [2007-12-21 22:51:41 +0000 UTC]

I haven't seen Elephant Man. Saw Dracula. I also found From Hell to be useful.

CausticStock In reply to KimiSchaller [2007-12-22 12:44:17 +0000 UTC]

Sleepy hollow is a good one though its more American Victorian but yeah Elephant man is a classic and also black and white but you can't go wrong with it .. also get Oliver with Albert Finney in it .. again a bit of an old movie and more the underbelly of London society but its a cool movie

KimiSchaller In reply to CausticStock [2007-12-23 08:58:03 +0000 UTC]

Sleepy Hollow's fashions weren't quite Victorian as far as I could see... or if they were then it was early Victorian. The short pants and high collars looked more Regency to me, though the ladies' dresses were closer to Victorian...

Ypu are talking American Victorian though .. so you may have a slight mix or a different take on styles
