Oh ...Gray! I'm diggin' it Marcus. The Red eye really stands out against the gray background. I'd almost like to see the lines done in a really dark gray, so he almost emerges from the background, but the eye/hair extremely vivid. The gradation in the hair is nice, as well as the composition. (I haven't seen you do a pure male portrait in a long time.) What's the black dot on his nose? Anyway:

hot stuff BEEF CAKE...muwahahaha!
