This is something I have been working on for the past few nights. I used myself as a ref. I'm not too sure about the "magic part" coming from his hands, I'm still playing with it. Any thoughts or crits would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for looking!

Wonderful piece so far.

I'd like to see you push the skin tones brighter around the hands and face. They still seem to dark for that bright magic.

Maybe if a deep forest background or something back there would help brigten him up as it is though.

The three fingers close together on his left hand seem a bit long.

Other than above comments, you did a great job on your skin tones and pose.

The light especially in your/his left hand might look better if it was completely behind the hand. Maybe that hand could be visible just as a silhouette?
He reminds me a little of that guy: http://www.bastian-pastewka.de

bastian pastewka ? *gg* yeah damn right.

The picture is lovely done especially hands and the lether texture. I would say really work on the lightning thing cause it's great work so far.
Agree with ANDYT. Maybe add a different color like blue or red in the middle of the lightning.

Can't wait seeing it finished.

Very nice. Your hands are very well done, with the exception of that lighting thing. I also agree with jHof about the background. Anyways, excellent stuff so far.

Yeah, definitely change the background. Even if you're going to leave it a flat color, then just pick a different one because that dark umber isn't helping it. Otherwise it's a pretty nice image.
