He should have done an entire series for Doomguy, showing him gradually getting beaten up. Some modder could stick it in a real Doom game :-D

Billy the Kid looks like a punk, Elizabeth was less than attractive, David was...anyway, something about Machiavelli reminds me of Schiff and Lady Liberty had a sneer. 😉

That is the kind of artist I aspire to be. Unfortunately, I’m nowhere near.

Van Gogh cut off his left ear, so that is a ‘before’ recreation. Might of been interesting to show it as an ‘after’ instead.

Van Gogh looks like Gen Sherman. Same crazed eyes.

I kind of thought the same thing. He really looks like the guy History Channel had play Sherman a few years back.
