This is Marco Hietala, vocals and bass player for Nightwish. His vocal qualities are somewhere between hardcore and opera. He was born in Finland in 1966. I did this one for my new friend here on AW. Leah Jaarveth, who always gives me wonderful compliments on my work, this is for you. (Check out Leah's mermaid art; I love it!)

Very nice indeed...Carliss Mora 14 Mar 2008
Well, I think I should probably find out who Marco is. This is very well done!!! His eyes are most intimidating, and full of expression, yet in this, and one other one I've seen, his complexion seems smooth, and soft. What great contrast, as well.Lili Segal 14 Mar 2008
Awesome portrait, Michelle! Excellent work!
