Assymetry is noted, hes meant to be rather unbalanced, or twisted. Other than that, fire away please. Let the cannons of critique rain doom upon my conceptions.

Thanks for reading.

I like it, but i think it would benefit from more AA, and incidentally, aa'ing a 45 degree line makes not much sense in 99,9% of all cases, it' wont get any smoother than it is, just thicker and blurier.

I agree with ptoing. The facial details could use some smoothing, particularily on the forehead folds and the mouth.

The palette is lovely.

The colors look wonderful in this piece and gives a nice wooden look to it almost as if it were a mask, really nice  :)
As to what the others said, if you were actually going for the wooden mask look then I don't think you'll need to smotth it out but if it were actually supposed to be an image of a human twisted face, then yeah perhaps smooth things down a little in parts of the areas that look kind of woden.

Good work, and I'd like to see you add a simple background to it, it would make this piece look twice as good in my opinion.

Wow. I love it, but hate it. The colors are so dark, strange and frightening  :-X
It reminds me of one horror movie where a clown kidnaps a kid... :P
