Oh, I *am* sorry, but I will never believe in a real Marlboro Man who doesn't have a Sam Elliot moustach. But that's enough about me. I like this very much. If I had to find something to quibble about...maybe the highlights on the lower and upper lip on the shaded side could be toned down a tad. And the highlight on the eyeball on the lit side could stand to be whiter (it's a little confusing as to whether that is the eyelid or the eyeball. It looks like the eyeball is highlighted on the shaded side?) Otherwise. mmmmm. Yummy.

Hmm....doesn't the original marlboro man not have a lip anymore from cancer? hehe he came to our school once....I wasn't too impressed with him, then again i was in like the 6th grade and probably didn't even know what cigarettes were. Anyways, Sythe, I like this new style! That's if, you keep it this way. I'm looking forward to the end product!

I think it would be cool to finish the shadow side corpse- or skeleton-like to represent the effeccts of lung cancer. The red is definitely Marlboro red! Good work so far.

Reminds me of JASON from "Halloween"

Dun dun dun...sha sha sha..dun dun dun Oh God!, Jamie lee Curtis, don't go in there.....Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The Marlboro man is just ssssssssexxxxxy.

Darned cancer-sticks XD nice draw

I like this one so much I have to keep coming back to look at it again.

Thanks DBA, your one of my favorite artists.

Woo! The texture in the felt of that hat is fabulous...and the highlight on that left cheekbone? Perfection.

Thanks everyone!

Can I have the coupons that came with this pic?

Sure Dave, I don't smoke anymore, I quit about a year ago and they still send me coupons (damn temptation). :) ~free stuff is the best~

Damn..wish I could..gonna have to try soon.. so don't send the coupons

I feel cheated. I got the same coupons but there was no picture of any Marlboro man. Oh well, this rendering more than makes up for that, and I smoke Camels, anyway.

Nine out of ten men who tried camels went back to women

a fantastic use of color and texture.

Started out rolling my own ...something that came in a blue can, even Bull Durham when I was broke. Then Camel straights, then Marlboros, then Winstons and Camel Filters and finally Export A's. The last time I took a break from smoking was five and half years ago. I'll never say I quit. I still consider buying a pack now and then. How can y'all afford it any more anyway? They're 8 bucks a pack here. I remember being pissed off when the price in machines went up to 50 cents. ha. If wages had kept pace with the cost of smoking, I'd be making $80 an hour now. I think it's cheaper to be a heroine addict, isn't it? (sorry. I know this is forum fodder. 'pologies, Sythe.)

Hey T, that's one of the most interesting stories I've heard all day. I've rolled my own, smoked pipes and even used dip. Did you know that they even have Marlboro in Iraq? They taste like sawdust over there but hey, when you need a smoke you'll settle for anything. I've replaced my nicotine habit with caffeine, now I'm up to a pack of Cola a day (just kidding).

WOW ! The dark side is magnificent ! (I wasn't referring to the pic.. I was referring to Star Wars ... (kidding acourse ;)).

The Dark Side gets all the best powers, why would anyone want to be a Jedi anyway. Incidentally, I pronouce my username like Sith also. :)
