My Pencil Portrait of "Marlon Brando" as "The Godfather"

In the past few months, I've seen a lot of Marlon Brando portrait flying around and after so long a while, the idea sticks in your head that you need to make one.
Well, I did.


Using the 10B Bianyo I just got through the help of my friend Tezzmax, I made the entire sketch, outline and all.


I'd confess that though I haven't seen any of Brando's movies outside "The Godfather", I can still boldly say he is legend.
To think of the things he had to learn just to play that role, and the sagged mouth...God, the guy is good.
Those kind of movies where actors put themselves through rigorous training to get the job done, movies whose plot need to be patiently decoded are getting scarce, and butt entertainment is what's being slapped in our face.


I made this portrait out of respect and would've loved to talk a bit on the movie but it's been atleast 5 or 6 years since I saw it last. I wouldn't want to annoy any fan with my rusty memory, don't worry, I'll see it before the month runs out....
