Dude. That's awesome. You've really captured him well! (And what a fine thing to capture too...) And I could die over the way that you're able to render clothing. The bandana is killing me ded.
I think perhaps the thing that looks a bit off is that his eyes aren't quite on the same plane... Well, they *are*, but that plane isn't quite tilted properly to match the tilt of his head. The eye on our right should be a bit higher, methinks?
I just realized I'm not sure if you're okay with critiques like this. Uhh. Sorry in advance if you're not? ^^;
Well, to be honest I take all criticism extremely personally and beat myself up over it, but the last thing I want to do is tell people not to give it to me. It is helpful, even if it hurts, plus--what good are a bunch of compliments if people only give them to you so they won't hurt your feelings?
And it makes the compliments I do get more meaningful. Like the clothing thing ^^
D'oh. Well I mentioned it because you said that something looks a bit off, and to me, that was the one thing. But it's not something that's consistent in your work at all, just a minor flaw in this otherwise gorgeous piece. ^^
As long as the criticism is at least equally mixed with compliments, so I know that the person IS just pointing out one thing but likes the overall picture, I'm okay. Especially if it's something I already kind of knew, which this was. I spent a while trying to fix the eyes, but it never was quite right... There's also a little something wrong with the face shape--but then you all can't see the picture I did it from, so it's harder for you to find the mistakes. But thanks :)
