Here's an image I've been working on in my spare time. I don't even think it's 50% done, but I thought I'd get some advice before I get too far into it. Any crits would be much appreciated.

The scooter is based on my 1965 Lambretta Li125.... just FYI

I see problem with proportion. The guys seems to have no leg...apart from that it's a very cute design and style.

Elongate the lower half of this image or make it a downshot scene I'd suggest :)

Hi,
I like the image and had some crits.

- The hands are too small
- Also it would make the picture more interesting if you would perhaps draw the legs like I have on your pic (hope you donīt mind). Itīs just a suggestion.

(I have also enlarged the hands).

I think the hands could be even larger than Mumphy made them - since they're the closest thing to you (on the body). You should push the perspective a little. Maybe exaggerate a bit.

If you're working on a specific character, one you want to have a specific identity, you might want to create a more dynamic and recognizable silhouette - ie, not straight on, and not totally symmetrical. :)

Hey thanks for the input everyone. I'm trying to find time to work on this right now, but it's really busy at work. I thought maybe the arm would get a lot of comments... but I never really noticed the hands.
If anyone has some tips on painting chrome in photoshop let me know.

Thanx, RippleMDK
