Hello,,, This will be my first post here.

This is a design im currently working on for fun.
Its some kind of supermutant alien.
The skin around this guys mouth is not really attached to his skull around the jaw area making it look like he has two layers of mouth. im going to do a different angle on him with his mouth closed, and all of that saggy skin around his neck sucked up tightly around his jaw bones revealing the true "Goatlike" shape of his skull. when his lips are open and relaxed the flabby necksack will hang and when his mouth is completely closed the skin will suck up and cling to the jaws. the facial animation of this guy talking would be fun.

crits are more than welcom

Welcome and glad to have you join...especially with that talent. Very nice penciling skills here. Ok the flab around the jaw is the opposite of what you would want if you were to animate it...or the jaw has just recently protruded and is just about to open yes? I can see it. Great stuff. Now I will need your website address, you know that right?

Peace

I`m looking forward to see the coloured one - really nice work !!!

I love the eyes and the ridged collar.
I can totally see this thing talking. It would very disturbing.

Only crit.
The four growths out of the back of his head don't really looked like they're attached. Or at least it's confusing as to how and where they connect with the head.

Great design
Waiting expectantly for more....

NICE work... the head is awesome and soo are the hands... My only crit is that the whole torso+arms look flat compared to the head and hands... you need some more Shape... add some darker darks and lighter lights =). good job...

Great first post!!! Welcome! It's a really interesting design and I can't wait to see a finished version of it. The growths in the back of the head do look a bit "off" but I'm, sure easily adjusted. It looks awesome!!!

Great work.

Self portrait? Great image, I can't really find a thing to moan about.

NIiiiiiice.. really cool style! You have this style - you outline a lot of things with black that normally wouldn't be (the rib-thing collar, the left side of the fac e, the teeth).. it adds a really distinct cartoony style because the lighting of the object wouldn't leave a dark line there, but you outlined it for emphasis. Unfortunately, You used a dark line around the head to separate it from the horns, and that makes them look to be separated. also the shading on the horns might need shadows from the head but i dont know enough about shadows to tell.

Lazydead and funkylizard: thanks guys,, i think your both right about the antler growth things. they doo look like there floating behind his head. i will see what i can do. im puzzled though.
