"There is survival and survival, the historian learns to his grief. The very worst impulses of humankind can survive generations, centuries, even millenia. And the best of our individual efforts can die with us at the end of a single lifetime." ~Elizabeth Kostova

Kostova's Vlad Drakul, Vlad Ţepeş, Vlad III the Impaler, Prince of Wallachia, Dracula, etc.

Wonderful Picture! I noticed his eyes right off. Very intense.. the pose is really nice as well. You just want to reach out and take his hand. I've never been able to do that kind of thing without the hand looking horribly demented.. ;)

Love it!

Nice work!
I realy like this, I think you captured the feel of the charachter as presented in that novel quite well. And, it still manages to pull from the more traditional expectations of Drac as well. So in essence, it's a near perfect merging.
