Well...I've been lurking here for quite some time but never had the guts to post something...
Saw someone posting a MosDef-pic so I decided to let my pride go down the drain...
Lots of errors in this one but after spending countless hours with this one I had no energy to fix them..
Done in Photoshop w/ mouse...all in one layer due to 64Mb RAM...

I really like it!
I really like is music too!
I think the pic is awesome , just one crit...
maybe more contrast on your color and less
"blur" in the pic...try to use the harder brush sometimes it gives real nice result,
i mean try to put some sharper edges on the nose an on your shadows...
Try that, im sure you will have a good result!
just my 2 cents

I don't know who this is, I'm not big on any sort of modern culture - so don't be distressed.

This is really great, especially with a mouse. The only crit I have is nitpicky is that the shoulders and shirt are too... 'meh'. Asin it looks like you just kind of blew them off after such hardwork on the face (which is definetly understandable).

Great work.

looks really good, my only comment would
be i think it would look better with a litte
bit more darker shading in general on the face, especially the eyes, nose and lips, and
maybe some sharper hi-lights on the eyes.

gooodnonetheless...!

Very good job, like kombosagi I instantly said "Hey, it's Mos Def!" I also agree with hipmix, however- there needs to be more contrast within the face. Mostly, I'd like to see some of the shadows as dark as the background black (e.g. under the nose, upper lip, and around the eyes), and maybe make some of the highlights a little bit brighter. It would really make this pic jump off the screen. Let me say again, though- this is already a great pic!

thanks for the feedback...I'm quite tired of this pic so I'm gonna leave it at this...atleast for now, but IF I should get some sort of urge to get back to it, I will definitely do some "harder" shading. I just love this forum!
