I won’t be lying when I tell you I get people approach me nearly every day, expressing their insecurity in their work and seemingly unreachable goals for their career.

So...I know this is not what this contest is for and I hate to be a pester. This came up in my search for stock photos.
I am working on a project for which I need...kind of a letch, malicious looking old man. I have a [bad] sketch of what I'm thinking of doing in my profile. May I have any...suggestions...? Maybe. :3 Please.
