I think that the hair are too blurry comparing to the face. But other than that, very nice

Especially the texture on the face.

the design itself is very cool
coloring is also well done
the lightning on the face is good as well
The hair is still to blurry compared to the face, just make a bunch of 1 pixel lines through the hairs and will look a lot better i think. very good job overall. A background would be nice as well

. I think a darkbrownish background with a buch of chemical stuff, vials and such would fit best.
good job overall

he DOES look like a zombie now that i look at him better...for the hair i kinda wanted to go for the half realistic/half anime, sharp looking hair but it didn't work...his moustache is really sposed to be all curly -n stuff...i worked off of a photorealistic portrait i did of einstein last year as a freshman which is hung up on my wall---it's in graphite so i thought it'd be cool to make up the colors but do the same shadows-----anyway thanx everybody for yur help

Hey

I think that he�s really good, especially the eyes.
If you want I can give you a tip on how to make hair in photoshop 7.

This is an idea i came up with when i once doodled around in photoshop:
You use the smudge tool and the set it to around 80% or less,(you�ll have to play a little with that setting). Then you use a Rough Round Bristle brush, nearly at the bottom in the brushes in Photoshop 7. Then you simply smudge the hair area so it looks like hair-straws.
I hope that you use Photoshop 7.
I have attached an image to show you:
