I love it, how on earth do you do that ed:

ed:


Only two things I see. One, the eyebrows are a shade to rich for the hair, you can juuuuust faintly see that it's a shade too red. Also, the mouth is a bit blurred, I dunno if that's purposeful but it looks a bit odd to me.

But it is your art, so fix it up how you like. Nice job. biggrin:

The cigarette looks really out of place, other then that nice job.

there is supposed to be smoke and steam coming from the cig and mouth, it might get better when i put this guy against a background

ill tweak it a bit cuz im not yet 100% satisfied, i did it all in one session for about an hr or two

EDIT: Touched it up a bit and replaced it in my 1st post

Next step = background

rock:

looks like you edited some things in digitally and I think they look kinda out of place.

^ meh, i like the mix of styles, reminds me of the thief series' cutscenes, this is what it looks like often when you take a sketch and illustrate it in photoshop?

have you done better?

drawing, no. but I don't draw. It's fine if you like the style of photos mixed with drawings, I was just saying that I don't so I don't think it looks as good as if you would have kept it all pencil
