one note: the appendage with the glowing sphere is *not* a hand.. my friends kept saying, "looks good, but that one hand is f*ed up". *smacks face and shakes head..*

I was gonna suggest something but I just remembered you want feedback from seriously talented people...

*nori rolls his eyes*

here's some advice: get a new webhost.

Im no master, but I have some time to kill, procrastinating and all. Ill just go over it real quick with things i notice. Here goes, take what i say with a grain of salt, im an idiot:

head is lopsided, neat see into the skull thing with the wires. eyes are funky, pefectly round. weird grimace. the shadow is on the wrong side of his head (the orb of light would make that side of his head brighter), groovy horns on the shoulder. stiff pose. the hand looks tweaked attached to that arm, the pose he is in is really leaning to the left, if you line up his body below his arm to his body above his arm its really off his head doesnt start till its off of his body to the left. the light/fire is oblong i think id like it better if it was more round/vertical, the arm/claw thing holding the fire sure looks like a messed up hand. it would be better to either make it clearly not a hand, or just make it a hand. the body also doesnt have much form or structure besides some tubes, how about an exosekelton or some muscle/skin. Also, Id push the highlights/darks on his body more to make him look more realistic, hes sort of greyed over right now.

That shadow thing, for sure.

I'm quite partial to the detail on his face. Looks like if I reached out to touch him, he's be cold, hard, and scaly. Right on.

Thanks guys for your comments.. although I won't be making any changes to this image, I will surely take note of the remarks made about lighting, and form/pose in later artwork.

thanks again,
