	Its/His(your) right ear seems kinda high up. I more darker grey color in the hair will make it pop.

	Dither is used for texturing, so use flat shading for the hair. And the teeth look weird... Looks nice, aside from that. Looking forward to see the rest

	I've decided I'm not using that for my collab. It looks nothing like me. I think I'll just ditch this one and move onto the real portrait.

	I actually got the inspiration from your WIP. :] I fixed up the lines so their thinner, and made the eyes a bit more realistic. Edited by Souly

	Ok so I colored and shaded it, Im not sure if I'm quite done... I got the basis of shading from another picture of me, so I could see which parts of my face were hit by light. Any suggestions to make this image better? I'm thing a bit of AA, but I'm still not sure how to do it yet. Edited by Souly

	On my laptop it looks fine, but on an actual monitor it looks horrid. It's going to be hard to fix it on the laptop. So I might just wait till I can on desktop.

	These color are waaaaay better, the nostrils need depth, so does the inside of the mouth were the tonsils are, and the white pixels in the eyes need to be in the grayer because the hair is casting a shadow over them. aaaannnnnnnd the background blue has a green base, whereas the clothing blue/purples have a red base, say you are happy with the clothes then change the bkg blue by adding a warm base (reds). For better cmpostion I would go with a dark yellow base.

	The skin showing through the hair about where the eyes should be looks much like they're trying to be the eyes... or that's the impression I get. Toy around with taking those out. And Artisan "and AA is cake" ...I'm not familiar with cake being a descriptive word, but I DO know it as a filter from some game... thing. Y'happen to come from there?

	I'll try working on the eyes some more. And as for the AA, I just plain suck at it, much like shading. I made the bangs longer, because you can never see my eyes. I attempted to highlight the bangs.. UPDATE Fixed the left arm. Edited by Souly

	*Originally posted by 7sons* hair shoulders face now i feel better :) Yeah thing is, I in no way look like that. I'm not screaming I'm smiling. The only resently good thing about your edit is the shading on the hair. I used a real picture I have as the referal to make the image. My chin is flat, my face does strech. And I'm sitting down.

	:P The arms do look a bit odd, but that's what they looked like so that's how I drew 'em. Yeah, I decided that if I was going to draw what I was wearing at the time I might as well take a photo so I can try to use it as refferal. The position of the torso was a bit off I just got too much detail into it that I didn't want to move it around. I will probably attempt to re-shade the hair now that I see how it should go rather then random in the front.
