You just took Ryumaru's edit and edited it a bit, wtf dude.

Hm, looking at it closely, I'm really not sure he did that. He may have been heavily inspired but I guess that's the purpose of an edit.

Well I know that my knowledge of anatomy is more than lacking and my first attempt didn't turn out very well. Redrawing the entire thing also didn't turn out very well after several attempts. I am trying my best to learn from someone more skilled than I. Since this is the case, I have very little way of confidently supplementing the edit with something of my own that I would think would be better than what is already there. When I tried to change something, it turned out to be unsightly. I am aware that I would benefit greatly from a longer study of the piece but I'm afraid that doesn't fit into my schedule right now. Sorry for any distress caused.  :-X

I guess that if it's fine with Ryumaru there's no problem, o'well.

You could definitely flesh out the face more and do some variations.

PPD's edit addressed the most glaring issue I saw with the face, his beard and face looked like they weren't attached.

I think the way you shade things makes them look like separate objects, because everything has a outline.
 You should allow your shading to blend together the different body parts and clothing, where it is appropriate.

I think the main issues with his face is the fact the nose is so high up, and the lack of depth in the eye sockets and brow region; the combination brings a rather weird appearance.

I'd recommend including some portraits that have ears so it doesn't become a consistent anatomical omission like Liefeld does with feet.

He looks a bit like a drug addict.

Need a lot of help with this man:



The hands and robe(especially the robe) look very off. I can't draw clothing very well at all. I've looked at some references and came up with the third picture. Are there any suggestions before I try to continue? Thanks.
