The reference pictures used for these two portraits are a good choice - not over-used/exposed & a different look for both characters, evocative of the episode it's from. The hair & make-up must have been an enjoyable challenge, particularly that incredible 10 quiff!
The likenesses are excellent - lovely expressions, the pencilwork delicate & the lack of background means the eye is firmly on the portraits & nowhere else!
My only critique is the range of tone in the pencilwork is a little limited - delicate, but overall very light. I'd expect some of the darker tones to be that much darker...but a minor niggle in an otherwise wonderful piece.
