Mike Ehrmantraut from the TV series - Breaking Bad


Like most people, i loved the TV show 'Breaking Bad', such brilliant writing and original storytelling. Each week we'd be thrown into this mad world of Walter White, Jesse Pinkman and supporting characters like Mike Ehrmantraut.

Mike was exactly the guy he looks like - the guy that you don't f--k with. The guy who would make things happen, make things disappear, make people do what they were obligated to do.

The spin off show 'Better Call Saul' is currently airing, it's a prequel to 'Breaking Bad' where we learn the origins of Mike Ehrmantraut and how he got caught up in what becomes the 'Breaking Bad' world.

If you've never seen 'Breaking Bad' it's worth checking out if you like dark comedy & drama. Watch the first episode and see if it grabs you - it only gets more intense!


The Drawing:


I drew this a couple years ago and thought i'd post it today while i'm working on some new content for Steemit.
It's drawn on my favourite paper - Strathmore 500 Charcoal series - which of course, you can't actually buy in Australia! For some reason the major paper importor doesn't import Strathmore so local art stores can't sell it. I have to order it from the USA and it costs a pretty penny - but it's worth it.

I hope you dig it and let me know in the comments what you thought of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul!
Thanks for your support, votes, follows, re-steems - it keeps me motivated! (and the funds will help me buy more paper!)
