I haven't drawn much on the computer, and haven't been able to draw anything for several months. Here is an "outline" for my submission- took me 30mins...

Sjimmie (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=112606) : great, stylish work - from a fellow Dutchman! :D
xodibox (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=157841) : very nice, stylefull work, with great brushwork! The rimlight makes it look quite dynamic. :thumbsup:
burpy (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=212917) : nice attempt! Looks quite regonizable!
kevinwalker (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=122279) : original work! Interesting character - great style!
doomtoo (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=39535) : did you draw it by mouse, in MS Paint? With a tablet and Painter/Photoshop, you could paint more stylefull, I think. It's quite good for someone who doesn't paint that much digitally, and hasn't done is for monts!:bounce: Maybe you should color it one day?
AndyDay (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=145709) : nice, moodfull work! Maybe you could had brought down the contrast a bit, and paint some little very bright spots (specular), so that the painting gets more dynamic? (For instance those windows could had been brighter?)
Ransom (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=55295) : nice work! I don't think I'd like to meet him ;)
goertzen_frank (http://forums.cgsociety.org/member.php?u=52301) : nice done! I like the way you shaded the face with those levels of gray! Maybe you could better have left that blurtool (for the background) to the side, and blur it by hand (sampling a bit around). I think the blurtools gives a painting something artificial - it breaks the (nice!!) style. :shrug:

It has been an awfull long time ago since I posted something creative over here - time for something new from me! :twisted:

He's not very ganster, but I think if I met him on street, I'd call him a ganster afterwards...! :twisted: I'm not very satisfied by it, but at least I'm back here. :wavey:
