Obviously i havent done the jokers half yet, and there will be some kind of shoulders too.
All critique and comments appreciated.

Im in love with this concept. You are a very awesome person for doing this. One thing that bugs me is the aa around ronald's scar (?) it looks awkward to me on the face, but thats just a small nit pick. Something about the shading on his lips as well looks odd to me. Maybe its the darkest shade?
Otherwise it looks great.

Ear is too low on hedgers head, not sure I like the transition between might be a bit too harsh of a line, iunno.
Seems a bit off too, could go in one pixel to the left on his chin.
Looking good.

This is my favorite concept out of the whole group, too bad you haven't had time to finish and enter it. Despite a few very well pixelled entries this should win, due to the strong concept. I'm especially amused by the title, hehe.

Just to let you know, whilst i didn't make the challenge entry deadline due to heavy assignments and a few other things, I have done a bit more work on it and will hopefully finish it off at the weekend.
Thanks for critique and the nice comments.

Update

dithered a lot of the joker's half to get a dirty/rough look.
Also, post number 1111 :D

He has a very dull expression atm, which kinda takes away from the whole sinister idea imo. You could make him angry, or worryingly gleefull, or downright sad. I have a feeling an extreme emotion would have a better effect in a piece like this. I think you need to contrast the facial structure some more also, show more shapes and add more depth.

kinda like this??

Still rather dull.
How about something like this:

I like the idea. I think the facial distortion must be much more drastic for the joker vibe to be conveyed

Thank you both for those edits, extremely helpful.
Rough update:

I think it just needs to be polished off now?
Thanks.

nah it needs much stronger wrinkles around mouth corners and beyween eyes than you're suggesting to have planned here to get the character of the joker in
-
Helm, That's just crazy what you did to the eyes. Amazing!

I suspect it is because he is not bound to dark make-up aroudn the eyes, which allows him to fully enhance the eye, without obstruction
