Here he is, looking better than the first one i put up. These colors are at least a bit closer. I did some experimenting on background with Copics. I think i'm going to leave backgrounds for other methods, and stick with flat colors for now as a background till I get it worked out. I do like how the shading turned out this time. I think i need a better scanner or input method. Maybe a camera will work better.

*EDIT*
I took a photograph of the portrait, and it turned out much better. These colors are better than what the scanner picked up. Anyhow, i'm much happier, except for the stupid background. Anyways, better luck next time.
