Done, that is, unless I suddenly decide to give him a background. Which I probably won't. So, there you have it... previously featured in the in progress section, and now here.

Photoshop gooood. Tablet goooood.
I have no idea exactly how long this took me to finish -- I must've been sitting here for around 6 hours, I guess. But I was up and about, and sort of wheeling around on my chair like an idiot a few times, so... heh. Altogether, I worked on this over 3 days or so.

The end.

Wow, very nice, although I think you should spen some time and add a background to this, would add alot to it. I can't think of anyting to critique, although man that guy has one hell of a honker

His face looks like Marlyn Manson. (not that I know exactly what the guy looks like...but the nose and eyes resemble him sorta)

I really dig this picture! Great job!!!

Very beautiful rendering here... I think you captured a great character. It might be nice to see this guy with a background ^_^

beautiful, and I like it without a bg.
Though I'd be interested to see what you'd come up with if you added one.

Nice work! Heh, he is SO goth

Grimsheep - What I actually meant was I would like to see an entirely new picture of this guy with a background. Something with a little action, this one already works great as a portrait. I guess I should have been more specific. I forgot that artists can't read minds

wow! Looks awesome! The facial anatomy is awkward, but somehow very right. I'm liking it. However, those powerful highlights on the tips of his shoulders are really making his body look flat.

he looks like he could use some arms...his sleeves just kind of hand there...all well i like the feel of his character..also a backround would bring out his character more...

it kinda looks like marilyn manson

Heh, I've been told about a trillion times now that he looks like Manson... no need to point it out anymore.

Thanks a lot, folks.

I do intend to do more images of him, as he's pretty much my favourite personal character -- perhaps even looking a little less like whatsisteeth in the future. Hee. And maybe with backgrounds, too. I don't usually draw those for some reason (I think I'm just lazy), but we'll see...

this is very sharply done, beutifull detail, I'd even say it rivals some of Enyala's work but her subjects have much sharper features (look her up on this board, you'd like her)

The drawing in the head is wonderful I really like it. It just draws itself.

There is a problem I see in the drawing of the shoulders that I can only explain with a drawing, If you are interested I will draw it up, see if you agree.

I'm not being defensive, just silly. I do show my scribbles somewhere other than this message board, y'know...

Hey, that guy looks like Marilyn Manson.

Two is far from a trillion.

Anyway, looks great...I just said it looks like manson cause I figured you used manson for a model in the pic....cause it does look pretty damn close.
