This is really good but every time I look at it I keep coming back to this point: His forehead looks way too square. It looks like his head goes straight up then cuts a right angle back at the top, and the sides are a little angular too. I'm sure "Ahnald" himself has a fairly boxy head, but reality isn't always the best thing in art =). It's fantastic, but I think that boxiness should be looked at.

Its very great. Only the hair need some more work.:thumbsup

You did it with a wacom right? What model and size of the wacom you use?

[bansh33]

Awesome painting :D

I only have one crit...

On a normal monitor,
When painting tones of total-black and near-total-black, these near-total-black tones look indentical to each other.

However, if u then turn the monitor brightness up a bit, you can begin to notice the variations in the tones of black. Normally, you get some sort of halo, with the near-total-blacks against the total-blacks.

I've posted a pic to try and expalin this ;) I've made the same mistake before, only to find (perhaps a long time afterwards) that on bright monitors you can see all the halos, doh!

One way around it, is turn your monitor brighteness up a bit, airbrush a smooth transition from near-total-black to pure black... and then when done, just revert back to your old brightness level. So the pic will look nice on every monitor, even the really bright ones! :D

Nice catch Ceql, heh. I never would have thought of that, but it's a good thing to keep in mind for my own art as well.

Night: yea its a wacom graphire 1 (donno what size it is, its the smallest one i think)

didnt have much to spent on it D:, got it 3 days ago

:)


the hair do need some work but i need to build a method for that

this is my first painting ever, ill get some with time and practice :)
(and it wasnt very clear in the ref also)


ceql : thanx your right, ill update the pic, tho i didnt put much effords on the coat, its only there to place the head on the pic

but i still need to do it ;)


whiterabbit : well arnie have this uniqe face note, the boxy forehead and the bumps around the mouth heh
the only thing i should have done is make wrinkle on the forehead
but when u look on the ref u can see that the make artist did a good job covering it =P



anyway, this painting needs alot of job to be total realistic, specialy with texturing

i just need to practice more and build my methods



THANX FOR REPLYING
