Inktober Day 23: Rip

Captain Kirk with torn uniform shirt - drawing in pencil and colored pencil

The #inktober prompt for the 23rd was "Rip" and I spent a lot of time looking for photos of guys with the butts ripped out of their jeans, to no avail. Finally, I decided on that iconic still of Captain Kirk posing with his torn uniform shirt in front of that cave mouth. Here's the picture I am talking about:

And here is my drawing:

As always the hands plague me, and I wish the face looked more like Shatner. I'm pretty happy with how the uniform shirt came out, though, and that was the main exercise here. 

Thanks for looking :D
