Beautiful. Did this come from the photo of the original? Curious about the process.

This is amazing, you got the shading perfectly. I'm doing portraits for gcse at the moment at school(also done this chuck close photo-realism painting), shame we weren't allowed to use computers, then you may have seen some competition from me ;), jokes, your awesome :D.

thanks. Yes it took a lot of hours. But it was finished in less then two weeks I believe. I just was working on it all the time. I was going to make it available for print but I've had people complain that is copyright infringement because it is based on a work of another artist. Despite the fact that I obviously credit Mr. Close for the design and only credit myself for the vectorization.
Thank you for your comments
