This was a little bit of a rush job. I did this in about 6 hours yesterday as part of the design for the invitations for my brother's wedding rehearsal dinner. I sort of waited until the last minute, but I've had so many other projects I've had to work on this month that I haven't had time.

The size is about 10 x 6 inches.

Comments/criticisms welcome as always!

The only real problem I have with it is that I botched the shading on the dude's face and arms. He's pretty lumpy and blotchy. On the invitations, though, he'll be small enough that I think it'll be all right.

I really like the cross hatching you have used to create your darks and midtones. I think it should look very good at the smaller size.

Thank you!
