Newspaper dude finished piece

Hey guys :)
I'm early today! Yay :D so here's the finished piece from the dude from yesterday. Don't you think he looks a little like Ben Whishaw? (Skyfall! *.*)

Newspaper dude

So after a girl yesterday we have a dude today :D I really enjoying drawing on newspaper-the problem is only, I found out while doing the beard, is that you really do have to be minimalistic-otherwise the whole thing is too much. Horrible. That's why I'm thinking I might need paint (We haven't had any paint here for a long time! :D) which covers the pattern of the newspaper and can therefore make the whole pciture calmer again. This dude is staying in pen though :D

Newspaper experiment :D

Okay today I had an idea. Well technically it is not mine because a lot of people have done it before me but when is that not the case. So anyway ballpoint pen on white paper can be a little....minimalistic. But minimalistic on a wild background is awesome. That means-newpaper. This is my first try :D What is kind of difficult is that it is kind of complicating erasing on newspaper so you can't to a preliminary pencil sketch. Raaaaah-makes everything so much more complicated but I'm quite satisfied with the result! :)
