I absolutely LOVE this style! This is a badass picture... my only crit is that the smoke seems to... I dunno... be in the way? I think it should be an important part of the image but I'm not sure it should split the image in half an cover an important part of his face so much. If that makes sense? Even if you don't change it, I'll still really like this. Enjoy the colors... cool cool.

I really dig this style.
I have to agree with Jezebel...the smoke is well, I don't know...distracting from the clean lines.That's the only way I can describe it.
I tried messing with the composition and came up with this. I hope you don't mind.
It's lookin SAAWEREET!! I really can't get enough of cool cartoons.

As I told you, this one is just great =)
I think the original looks just perfect, because the position of the cigar says a lot about the character attitude, and the smoke also looks good to me. |

thanks for giving me the motivation to continue
i like to do those, it's fun to let loose.
i agree with koryh and jezebel, the smoke is a bit distracting. but i also agree with ragnarok, the way he holds the cigarette is supposed to show a bit of his attitude and add a bit to the character.
should've planned it better perhaps...
thanks again!  |
