Artist's Comments

David Balfour from Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped, as portrayed by Brian McCardie in the 1995 movie version.

If you have read the book, you will understand the title :D

If you have not read the book, go and read it now because it is wonderful. (If you like historical adventure novels that is... or swashbuckling and Scottish accents... or generally being pursued by British soldiers while trying to save your own neck and another's clan. Whatever floats your boat :) ).

Well, about the drawing..

I am no where near as pleased with this as I hoped to be.. I suppose my past year of not drawing much of anything took its toll on my shading abilities. I suppose I will have to get back into practicing... As it is I cannot do justice to cravats (i.e. all that folded fabric).

Hooray!!! It's gorgeous. I don't know what you're talking about with the cravat and all, because it looks pretty darn fabulous to me! And you know I love the shading on his hat. ;-)

Now you need to draw Alan! :D

I intend on it! But it would be Alan the way I imagined him, which is quite different than any of the movies :)

:D :D :D I tried doing him that way, as a sort of fashion plate sketch (I wanted to draw his clothes, not him, ha ha) but it didn't turn out.

Who would your ideal casting be, as Alan?
