Description

I am writing an illustrated novel and this is one of the characters, Ryu. If you want to see more of him, use the link below.

OK... first... the title explanation: The intense glare he has reminds me of a poster of an Eagle I saw. Eagles, are always glaring... this was no exception, and it had the caption, "i AM smiling" written with this. I couldn't resist.

I drew this for a few reasons: one, Ryu was feeling left out. two, it is for a hot guys contest being held by :iconcocodrillo: Link to the contest --> [link] . three, I am still working on learning how to draw guy's chests. :laughing: four, I finally got my traditional tools out of storage... we were remodeling the house, and I was compelled to use them.

So anyway, I hope you like it.

Try checking out the Belvadeir Torso for references for male chests. That's what Michelangelo used!
