Its supposed to be one of the guys from "They Might be Giants"
I think I over worked it too much.. ah well when I get my new tablet Ill be able to refine my style more.... (hopefully). I had a bunch of old Sear images stuck in my head... and I think an edible snowman image from the selfportrait thread....
anyways here is the reference...

well sear is a lot looser. and not so confined pallette wise. just looks too controlled to me, im sure youll agree. try making a new layer and painting over it. now that youve squared away where everything is itll be easier to loosen up. _________________ eatpoo gallery - eatpoo forum |

Roundeye: yeah Sear is alot looser.. I threw another layer over top and tried loosening up a little.. and tried broadening my palette. I think Ive succeeded in some ways and not at all in others.. I cant really spend too much more time on this image tho..
so thanx for the feedback..
C&C still very welcome.
[edit] oh and the picture isnt supposed to look exaclty like the guys.. just reminscent of them. sorry, I think I didnt make that clear int he first picture. |
