benedict's face.

I spent a lot of yesterday trying to understand Benedict Cumberbatch's unique facial happenings. Here's a handful of quick drawings.

He has so many angles, and his lips are so interesting. They're like triangles, there's such a dip in the middle. Have you ever watched them as he speaks? The first time I watched Sherlock, I was, at first, cripplingly dazzled by the melted-butter quality of his voice. But after that initial introduction, it was like my eyes were racing my brain to understand his face and how is lips moved.

Pretty stoked to hear his voice come out of Smaug.
