My rendition of Arithon, Prince of Rathain from the Wars of Light and Shadow series (Wurts). I know it doesn't come close to Ms Wurst's version but I thought I give it a try. My first male potrait and was kinda afraid that I may have made him look a bit feminine.

I had pictured Arithon differently but you have the general idea. He does look feminine. But that turned out well since Arithon is 'delicate'. You should try Lysaer next, but make him very masculine. Here are a few tips for masculinity: a large, square jaw; wider, less pointed features; more pronounced eyebrows; and make sure the lower half of the face(below the eyes) is larger than the upper half. Keep up the good work.

Nah, here's a gorgeous one ... adding my own 2$ tip for a more masculine look: a bit thinner lips with a less accentuated "bow", and also mind the neck with a bigger throat.

This is the only picture of Arithon I could find on Elfwood. Why don't more people draw pictures of him?? Maybe I should try one.. hmm..
Anyway.. Nice job on the hair. I'd pictured his hair being longer than the way you've drawn it, but it still looks nice.

wow! I am so excited! This is the only other picture of Arithon I've been able to find on Elfwood, which is a travesty, because he is such a great character, and I was beginning to think I was the only one who had put pencil to paper for him! You've done a great job here, your shading is wonderfully smooth, and I think the hair is fine, Ms Wurts didn't make his hair that much longer in the original cover of Curse of the Mistwraith. I would imagine this is probably him somewhere near the start of the epic, as he became much more burdened later on in the novels. Great job!

This is a great picture. I particularly like the shading on his cheeks that show up the cheekbones - I've tried for years to get that effect, and never succeeded!

However, I wouldn't necessarily have known it was Arithon - my first thought was that it was David Bowie, so maybe it is a bit effeminate...
