very good. I love how the chair seems so insubstantial beneath his brooding.

That's pretty spiffy. *g* I like the ary glance over the top of the ratty paperback.

Thank you... these are always so solidly "so that's what they look like" -- they feel *right*

I like how he's not really relaxed into the chair. He's just heard something, maybe, or looked up to watch the monitors. Such an impression of caught-in-mid-motion. It's great!

Thanks everyone! These character sketches are so much fun to draw and it makes me happy to hear others are getting something out of them.

Also, it's neat when a bit of the writing suggests very specific body language, like in 'Vigil' where there was an "Aha, I know exactly how he's sitting" moment.

He also looks like he's not *going* to relax into that chair, ever. Thus the mind-candy to read, while the rest of him keeps watch.

Y'know, it's strange, particularly since we've been told that Reyes isn't religious, but something about his body language says 'prayer' to me.
