Awesome comp, and great detail! I can feel his weariness. Maybe a little more light into his eyes would have really brought this out.

And he's cheap too!

Great job,Mathieu - sharp as a tack! I wouldn't want to run into him in an ally. Looks like boxing was a previous profession.

Wow, look at that nose! You caught the expression just right. I wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley.
