Thanks for the replys guys, I touched up the pic that I colored, trying to add more depth and form. I think it looks worse, maybe I am going at it the wrong way. Any help would be great.

Before shadows:
And I also took out the background for now, please somebody give me an idea for the background. I was think maybe using a desert scene, with scrapped cars/planes in the background, sort of a post-apocolyptic (sp?) place.

i think it looks better, but it still seems to rely too much on the dodge and burn tools. also, it's kinda hard to tell where the light source is. :\
looking better though, keep up the good work

Thanks. I gonna try to steer away from dodge/burn, now that I look back I can see it too. Anyways, I'm giving up on this image for a while, maybe I'll color another one of Feng's, I'll probably do my own, so I can get the feel and look that I want. Thanks again. Keeping replying, need help.

| I think it looks much better with the shading. My suggestion would be to start out with just one lightsource. Once you get the hang of that then move on to multiple sources. There are places that you have shading when it should be a highlight and versa vica. Take the arm for example.. there really shouldn't be any shading on top of the forearm. |

| Vortx: Yeah, this one isn't your best piece. The anatomy is a little skewed. I think that might be part of the problem with the shading. |
