This is the final homework assignment to my Clothed Figure 1 class. We had to collect reference and design our own version of a famous historical character chosen from a list. I wanted to practice drawing cowboys, so i picked old Wild Bill here. Im gonna print this out on a big 2 foot poster for class tomorrow

Wonderful job! The outfit and the facials are very expressive and suit the character you are portraying well^^ Seems a bit tattered, but I'm sure this roughened cowboy has seen his share of down and dirty shootouts and barfights

My only technical complaint is that the cigar looks like it should be falling out of his mouth in the top left image. I think his teeth should be slightly parted, and the cigar clenched between them, but then again my only real reference for men smoking cigars is old A-Team reruns. Maybe "Wild Bill" just has stronger lips than Hannibal?
Great work all-around, though. The jutting-jaw head-shot grin and the full-shot of him reloading are probably my favorite parts of this reference sheet.
