This one of a series of illustrations that I have done for personal pleasure. Taken from a movie poster for Silence of the Lambs.
To preserve the original artwork, I am scanning them in and performing minor 'cosmetic' enhancements, mostly where the heavy use of lead pencils has created nasty shines and slight indents into the paper.
Mostly I have adjusted the levels, making the shadow areas much darker, thus filling in and removing the heavy lead pencil shine. Other than that, the detail you see above is non-enhanced.
Other illustrations completed include : Elvis Presley, Kate Bush, George Michael and some personal family portraits. Will post more in time.

There's something wrong with his left eye, but impressive nevertheless, I really like it.
