Young Stalin Portrait

on: February 22, 2009, 11:12:09 pm

I always thought Stain was a man of rugged manliness and now, I'm thinking of making a dating sim about him during his pre-revolution days. Robbing banks, running protection rackets and waging guerrilla warfare, and deflowering Siberian girls. He was perfect dating material.

So yeah, I need crits on it so I can make it worthy to Stalin.

His mouth's a bit narrow and his eyes are larger than that, also it may be good to move the jawbone lighting a slight bit to the left to accentuate the face (as can be seen in the front view reference you posted) is quite slender.

Neat work on this, one of the more appealing to look at portraits I've seen around  :)

Hmm, I fixed those issues, I think? I also played a bit with the palette just because.
