I never stop admiring both Kadar and your wonderful style, Dante.

Thank you as always for your comments; I'm not quite sure about the results of this style myself, but it seems like people like it at least.

I think it came out really interesting and Kadar looks very powerful just at he should look.

Well, thank you. It's a fun style to work in, anyway — no lines at any point (no sketch), just a large, hard brush and a single layer, working directly in colour.

Really? That's impressing. Now I feel like trying it, but I think I would pretty much fail..

It's how I do a lot of my pieces that end up lineless — most of the headshots I've done that don't have lines are done that way. It's good practice I think, because it forces me to think about how colours and shades give form to things without falling back on lines to get across the shape of things.

Yeah, it does sound like very good practice. I would love to get better at doing lineless art myself, I guess I should just start to do it sometimes.

Pretty much. It's the only way to learn, with art. ;]

Thank you! It started out as a randomish doodle, but I decided to refine it a little, so I'm glad you like the results.
