FULL-VIEW, please!!

Here's Zygmunt Padlewski, one of Polish insurgents in January's Insurrection (gee, so hard to translate:P). He was the representative of "Reds" group and - during the insurrection in 1863 - he fought as a general in Podlasie. Ok, it's not important=P
What's more, he died in the same year, being only 28!

But the strangest thing in this story is that I fell in love with his photo, with no reason, just by looking at it XD
I think he's really handsome^^ But I don't like his old-fashioned hair-do, hehe.

I spent many hours in my school drawing him (where do you think I have time to draw?? T_T)... my teachers got sick of him, even my History professor XD

I'm very proud of this drawing, I think it's mainly because I don't draw portraits at all...heh.

Hope you'll like it^^

Used mechanical pencils: 0.35 HB, B & 0.7 B
