Now that's some freakin' weird stuff, in
a big picture.

But my god that's good
work!!! Really like that dirt on it's face.

Critique:Those skeleton heads look
pretty strange. Only if they were meant
to be realistic.

Hi there Monaux... its good to see you have registered and posted...

For those of you who don't know Monaux...

He is a very talented skinner, who has won daily deviation at deviantart several times.. and also some sort of skin award from winamp.. I recommended he come to the forum as he is also interested in this form of art.. so make him welcome..

Monaux: I already told you that I liked this pic.. one suggestion though, make it a little smaller so it fits in the window..

The hair could be better. Try adding some larger brush strokes.. kind of imagine that hair isn't stringy.. for your first attempt this is good though. Draw some strokes thick and other ones thin.. there is alwyas variation in hair.. colour can also vary, and it is why whenever 'Enayla' (<<prominent member of the forum) posts a picture, people say wow! that hair looks great. She does variation in thickness of strokes and hue, and saturation... etc.

Hair rarely has a single hue to it, and defintely not a common saturation.

I think you need to integrate the hairline better with the forehead.. it seems to float a little bit, try adding some tiny brush strokes that extend furhter and break up the hairline line that appears. Look at your own hair in a mirror for an example..

As I said great to see you here, you should find that ppl here give much better advice and crits that the usual deviantart.. 'That 0wnz your soooo... L@@T!'

Hey forgot to mention, that little blood trickle or tear looks really awesome.. it adds a perfect final touch to the image.
