After Jules eating a tasty burger I was feeling confident enough to take on The Stare. It’s my best painting yet but the expression isn’t quite right, it’s lacking intensity of the original and I’m not sure what I’m missing. Feedback?

I’m doing one more SLJ in this series, it’s time for Mace Windu. That’ll make 16 and then I’m in to paint some family members. Not sure I’ll share them here, privacy and all. But this series has me confident enough to try, I’ve learned so so much! Thank you for all the feedback, critiques, and advice!

    Yep I’d go with the mouth tension, it’s too relaxed

    I recommend watching Clint Eastwood movie, there’s one with a scene with a close up that feels like it’s a whole minute of just his intense stare and some subtle mouth movements. Obviously he kills half the bar in 10 seconds after the scene.

    Can’t remember the name of the movie, it’s where he’s avenging Morgan Freeman (?) getting killed.

    By the way, great job mutha fucka Ball Man
