It certainly captures the determination behind that jutting square jaw … and the more you look the more alike they are.
The amusing factor for me is that if you really look closely at the Jamie Wyeth illustration – the one you reference a few posts earlier – the profile of the face in that is 100% Harry Andrews :)
Just by the way... Stevenson's model for Long John Silver was the one-legged writer and critic Willam E. Henley, (whose portrait bust can still be seen in London's National Portrait Gallery.) RLS and Henley co-wrote a version of the Jekyll and Hyde tale as a play: "Deacon Brodie". Henley had a reputation as a charmer, a talker and a drinker. The much younger Stevenson adored him and took him as his mentor...Very different from his own strict Calvinist papa.

I wouldn’t say that it looks nothing like him.
