French Dressing!

I was in the mood for doing something french. Maybe I'll add some updates later on, but first I need some fresh croissants ...

UPDATED: OK, I had my croissants. And they were tres délicieux.

Here is a close-up. This time with a blue background for Monsieur Mantel, who didn't seem to like the "La vie en rose"-style.

These are the scribbles. I made a quick marker sketch for the guy and quickly inked it with my Art Pen. Tried to make it a little bit rougher.

I love the background. It's so darn fitting!

I thought a Frenchman like this would be more prone to smoking a cigarette.

Thanks a lot folks!

@Richard: He's some artist guy from the 60s, so I thought a pipe would be appropriate!

I'm glad you appreciate the colour work. Especially on the bottom one .... uaaah! OK, bad joke. I like to play around with the colours, always trying to make it colourful but not too loud at the same time.
