Hi there!
I don't know about the others, but on my system, your image takes FOREVER to load. My browser even timed out on it, but I was curious why noone replied, so I had to leech it with GetRight...
I am not much of an "artist", so what follows is to be handled with care (or disregard, whatever). What bugs me about your portrait is the lack of definition. The face is just one big mass, put right next to another big mass that is your shirt. Maybe a somewhat clearer distinction between light and dark could help give the image more depth.
I take it the image is under progress, which would explain the blurriness of the hair's edges. Getting rid of that will also improve the pic. Oh, wrong forum section by the way, hehe
Is the slightly darker area going to be the ear? It may be a tad too low.
Never mind my babbling. Give it a go, the image sure has potential! I like the weird view you've chosen.

A reply!!!! @;-)
I don't see why it took so long to load... only a 48Kb file. Server must've been draggy. *shrugs*
Yep, can understand your point with the lack of definition. This was more of a speed pic that a finialised detailed work, but I am done with it. It served it's daily purpose, so I'm in the right forum. @;-) But thanks for the feedback, it is much appreciated. The ear might be a bit low too... *ponders* |

PlantMan: Are you being serious? I don't know if you're being sarcastic or not, but if you're not... oh dear...
Brain: The pic is looking good! I agree with Agrajag crits. I know you said it is a speed pic, but this has a lot of potential in it to be taken to a finished pic Also, I like the subtle blues and greens in the skin tone. It works nicely. ![](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

Plantman: I offered critique on your model, I didn't diss it, and you thanked me for what I had to say. If you had a problem with my comments, you could've easily brought it up at the time, which was July last year... If you're _still_ bitter over this, either contact me or go touch a llama. Get back in touch with God's fuzzy creatures. @:-D
jasonN: I think I might go back an take this further after many suggestions to do so. Prolly do that next week sometime. |
