I said that unnatural is not bad. Didn't you read what I said?

I THINK this piece could be improved by changing the colors. Color is relative, and when there is nothing to compare the contrast of that rich, vibrant green, to neutralize it, in other words, it is somewhat annoying.

I did a simple color edit to show you what I mean. It's okay to be unnatural, but you must know what you're doing first, so that it looks right! I hope that you understand what I mean now. By all means, continue using the same colors if you wish, I am just trying to help you understand a little bit about color... or what I know of it anyway.



edit: the green i chose is a bit yellow, making the yellow highlights kind of nonexistent. to fix that problem, just pick a green a little less yellowy.

Now, this is something I can learn, so I tank you  :)

Again, thank you. I've seen the edit, an I prefer my version. But that's about me, not you.  :lol:

have a wonderful day!

Darken the saturated green a bit, though. It hurts my eyes and it's way too saturated.
Nuuuuuuuuuuuuu

While you continue to work at this wonderful piece, try to step away from the football-shaped eyeballs. It will definitely add to the piece! Also, Opacus's edit looks kind of flat.

The angle of the eyebrows are making him look pissed.  I mean, creepy is one thing, but pissed is another--I think neutral, less-angled eyebrows would make him seem less like he's got a grudge, and more like he's going to do something creepy.  Does that make sense?
Man cannot remake himself without suffering for he is both the marble and the sculptor.
