Father and Son

Adolin looks almost as old as Dalinar, and for the record Dalinar isn't described as gaunt at all.

Yeah Adolin didn't turn out great and u right, I was trying to go for harsher features for Daliner but I overstepped into gaunt which isn't narrative friendly for a nobleman at all

Yh both their entire face looks way too harsh. Also, Adolin's taut neck and loose clothes make it look like he's all bones.

I do like both their hair though, and the uniforms seem like an accurate recreation 

I dont really care for accuracy and details. After all each depiction is a interpretation and is meant to show a particular facet of a character. I look at it the same way I do maps. It is impossible to put a 3D sphere perfectly on a 2D surface, so different types of maps get things both right a wrong. Nice job...looks like you put a lot of work into it!

I think Dalinar's face beside the gauntness is a good rep for how harsh I imagine him being, especially with his general description being 'ugly' although that's in Alethi estimation. If I'm being honest, I didn't look too hard for an Adolin description but considering he's only twentyish? 23? I went for youthful lanky rather than bulky. Still probably too thin though. Thanks!

You're sweet and thats a neat way of looking at it! I'm all for artistic critique though, it's alright. But you're kind, I'm glad you liked it! I spent about two days on it? It's a good relaxer, dipping my toe properly into colouring too, haven't had too much luck with colours until this. Thanks very much!

Love the outfits and the way the wrinkles are! Clothing is always hard for me.

Adolin looks like a really tan Billy Idol.

This is the first time I've been VAGUELY HAPPY about clothing, thanks! I'm glad a steward of gondor approves
