brush and ink

Some quick studies of young “Bond villain in embryo” Ernesto, from Richard Thompson’s exquisite Cul de Sac. I like Ernesto a lot. It’s really difficult to draw him as a visually older-skewing child, without making him look like a childlike adult a la Dr. Sivana. Also I think I made up the vest and tie.
