What do you want, sonny?

on: December 13, 2006, 11:36:51 pm

Final Version
DONE
I learned a few things from this, mainly that A+A is very important and that edits are important

This is a good type of piece to practice lightsources and etcetera with, and you did a good job laying out the shadows across the face.
I'd try smoothing out the jaggi-ness along his cheek (his right, our left) and other areas like that, maybe give it some AA as well.

also: the nose looks a little flat, try defining the nose-wings and giving the bottom edge a little more round-ness.

Update:

Changed the pallete to a anti-alias friendly one. Adjust some problems. Tried to give it the 1950 movie impurity look.

Hahaha, nice. :)

I like the style. reminds me of the classic Gameboy games. And coincidently enough, I've actually been working in that style recently.

Keep at it. I'd like to see more.

Wait! I made an edit ;D


just a few little crits...
touched up the aa in places (and added an extra shade), tweaked some forms (the eyes, made one into a monocle cause I thought that's where you  were going), messed with some shading, aaand... did some other stuff :P Hope it's helpful despite my lack of explanation.

Good stuff, btw. I do enjoy b&w pieces. :y:

Ah good edit Tremulant, it basically addresses everything I was going to crit. Except I think the nose should taper into the shadow tone just before black just a fraction bit quicker.

@Soup: Shaping up nicely, the main prob is shading. Basically make sure your shading is consistent to the lightsource, think about the face (and everything else) in terms of basic 3D form. Also every now and then sit back and look at your picture for jaggedness and smooth out with AA, and avoid using shades next to eachother that aren't adjacent to eachother on the palette ramp.
