I greatly admire all the old classic 18th - 19th century portrait painters. Of course, they didn't have computers and undo buttons and drawing tablets, which makes their work even more amazing.

Given the era of my comic I thought attempting such a style of painting would be fitting.

Edit: I forgot to say this is Robyn. I wrongly assumed that everyone was familiar with his surname ^_^

I'm just wondering, does Robyn have any sort of connection with Sam from True Blood? Because I look at him a few times and think of Sam.

I don't watch True Blood.
Besides which, my comic launched in September 2007, while True Blood first aired in September 2008.

Some how I guessed he was a dragoon. And one of those lieutenant's you'd love to hate. Looking good! I haven't been able to find any information on the white chord. My guess is that it's a military decoration of some kind, or maybe a sign of rank? Still googling though!

This is the original image of the uniform I used for reference:

I can't quite see what it is on his waist that it attaches to.
