Captain Sam Vimes and Goodboy Pindle Featherstone the Third (everyone calls him Errol) X)
HERE IS A DISCLAIMER: I always have reservations about posting fan art (and yet, most of my gallery is fan art??), mainly because of fear of people nitpicking to death the parts of the image what are not canon or worse, what aren't THEIR idea of canon and that's just messy. So what? And as I learned, even when I bother to take the time to research, 'mistakes' can still happen. Vimes with a full head of hair is not canon! His badge is the wrong type (omg I couldn't remember if the shield or star was the old/new style)! His shirt is BLUE instead of brown! Maybe Errol's nostrils aren't huge enough. Eat it.
Maybe Discworld fans aren't as crazy about that stuff. Especially when you have to skim five novels at once to get a decent mental picture XD BUT IT'S WORTH IT BECAUSE I LOVE SAMUEL VIMES HE'S THE SEXIEST FICTIONAL MAN OF ALL TIME. Feel free to argue if you think Vetinari is moreso.
EITHER WAY. I love this picture almost as much as I love SAMUEL VIMES so I can't hold out. I was too intimidated to do any fanart for years, but I suppose I got over it when I went on a reading binge last summer (I lived across the street from a library X3) and I couldn't contain the obsession any longer. *shriek!* DISCWORLD

Your work is incredible. I'd let the nit-pickers and naysayers simply froth themselves into a suitable puddle.
Anyway, great job on Vimes. Who cares wether he looks exactly like someone else pictured him or not. That's impossible to achieve anyway. What IS possible to capture is the soul of the Character through expression and posture. And that is what you did, he really feels like Sam Vimes to me. Only thing I don't like are his sandals, but that's just my personal taste, I HATE sandals
Anyway, great job
