get a likeness to cumberbatch & andrew lloyd webber, either way goody

It looks like Webber to me though a youthful one. It's a lovely study though whoever it is. Diana

Thanks, Tony and Diana. Yes, it is meant to be Webber - the photo I was given to work from wasn't a recent one.

It's an excellent likeness Jenny, I like the way you have made the shadow side of his face disappear into the background.

I could tell who it was too from the thumbnail Jenny, really good great likeness.

I recognised him right away Jenny. Great likeness.

Andrew Loyd Webber without any doubt, Jenny. Terrific!

Thanks very much Fiona, Carole, Adele and Jennifer, pleased you recognised him!

Certainly a good enough likeness to enable the viewer to identify Andrew Lloyd Webber. A difficult assignment, and I think you did more than creditably, Jenny. I like the sense of timeless and drama that you've imbued in the piece.

Thanks, Seok, much appreciated.
