Wow, nice!
With art like that, you don't need to feel intimidated. 
As for crits, perhaps a slight over-reliance on outlines, especially around the hand, though it does add to the style alot.
Nice.  |

Very nice drawing! The colors are good, although you could push the lighting with more warm/cool variation. Nice work, and welcome!

Thank you all 
Ceenda>> you're probably right, perhaps the outlines are too visible. That's one of my old defects in painting. I'm trying to correct myself ! 
Anthony>> I wanted to give the impression of sun lighting, so that's why i've favoured the warm tones 
Matthew>> Thanks, but... just the hand ?

No, the hole piece. Somehow I got the attention to the hand.
It�s a great piece, I would like to see more from you.

Mmm I love the colours, especially the yellows and the way you've rendered his face in shadow. Nice stuff.

Thanks insider !
I think like you concerning the folds : that's why i let them unfinished, they were cool just like this.

Holy sh*t!@!
LOVE IT! The tattered edges of the hood give it a lovely textured look without overworking the details of the fabric. Very, very nice!! |
