Ok, so here I am...
First of all, I like the picture because of the details - I feel I could soak into them for weeks But the thing which disturbs me a little is the lightning of the E=MC2 thing. It's too strong IMO and I think that it might look better when darkened a little, especially on the right half of the picture.
But, great work, I'm impressed

The lightning-issue is a matter of bad photography though

I like this, I love the detail and complexity in this piece. Your highlights could be brighter I suppose, but that is the only thing I truly see that could be improved, and I'm just knit-picking there.
Very nice and well done.

Hehu, please notice it's a photography of the drawing, so the light is a bit fucked up. It's really hard to get a nice photo of a graphite drawing, the graphite tends to shimmer no matter what you do.

looks good but I think alot of the faces are unpoportional but maybe it's suppose to be that way since it is a abtract/psychedelic piece idk besides that looks great

wow! this is amazing. i love all of the detail u put into it. i'll start from the top and head on down lol as i said i love the detial. great shading. awesome scary eyes at the top. i think one is a bit bigger than the other tho. i like how the things forming his mouth are just random. WHAT INSPIRED U? cool little letters onthe side. maybe next time make them a bit more readable, u know? lov how they're all little doodles. i caught little funny-faced einstein in the mix. i like the face in the middle...maybe make it a little more proportionate tho. the eyes look differrent sized and it looks a bit lop-sided. i love the concept. great lettering for E=MCsquared. i love the concept. great shading on that bubble too. i love how as u look at it the picture just comes to life and inspires u. it's very creative and u see new things every time u look at it. i think that is a great value in a peice. great imagination u have here. KEEP IT UP. i want to see more!

Oh thanks Yes I agree about the face in the middle, it's kind of crooked (that face is actually built up by two faces in profile put together, one male (facing to the right) and one female (facing to the left), that was my starting point. Then it kind of got lost in my detail-craze and became one strange crooked face (facing towards the viewer).
And I'll keep the letters in mind as well. The text to the left says "Escher" (as in M.C. Escher, who made work such as this one: [link] ) and the text to the right, which is mirrored, says "Yerka" (as in Yerka Jacek, who make pictures like this one: [link] ).
Thanks for the comment!

Well, I cannot say that this isn't just super awesome, but it's practically a slop. The pencil seems to make it much to messy, adding that it's a little too swervy. So, don't redo it in pen or anything, but try going over it with a mechanical pencil or so. The whole peice seems somewhat dulled, you agree? Just my two cents. Great job.

Yes, now the dullness of this one might partially be caused by the not-so-good photography (it's really damn hard to take photos of a graphite drawing without getting a unwanted luster in it, when you have a regular cheap digital camera), but it is a slop. I agree. I like doing slops though . I do think the outcome of this drawing is kind of excessive. But I'm a little tempted to renew this idea on a much larger format, with oil color. Thanks for the criticism!
