Rodneyyy!

I have to say, I'm just really drawn to the draft copy! The impressionist style of the early version really captures his Rodney...ness. Something about the soft hairline and chin, and the blue of his eyes, and the watery-like background. Love it! *g*

I thought I'd include the 'draft' as it had its own quality. I nearly left it alone at that point but decided I wanted something a little more... defined... but I quite liked the softer version too :)
