I left you a long comment but unfortunately it didnt go through. Well to cut a long story short in my opinion you are the rembrandt of the pencil. Im astounded.

Excellent drawing, such fantastic detail.

Given I doubt you've done this from life, this is staggeringly good; and were I your agent, I should be encouraging you to approach Sir Ian with a commission suggestion.

Wonderful

Absolutely amazing skill you have Philip.

very nice
