Wow, this is awesome! I actually thought the shading and coloring were particularly good in this... XD;;
But really, this is great. I think the proportions are really good, too. It looks very finished-off to me, if that makes sense. I also really like his hair, especially where it's tucked behind his ear.

thank you so much erin! hee, i'm happy that you think the shading was nice..especially sense I'm so iffy xD;
and..I enjoyed that little detail too, and i'm not entirely sure why. Perhaps because it was fun to draw

Omggggg his expression - that skeptical peer over his glasses. The glasses themselves are amazing. The shirt's pretty damn good, too; I love the folds in it. Alsoooo the way you shaded his hair looks incredibly soft and touchable, and the gradations of shadow on the skin are lovely - distinct but not too harsh. To top it all off, he's lovely.

The coloring on this is excellent. The skin really looks three dimensional, especially with the perfectly placed shadows and highlights.
One thing to look out for (I am guilty of this as well) is making the hair larger than necessary. When you stop to think of how large the skull is and how much can be seen from that angle, you may find that you've given them too much hair -- took me forever to realize and notice.
That aside, I do love how the hair has been shaded. You just color so beautifully.

oh wow, thank you so much, nate <3
and aghhh, I know, it's such a terrible habit. It kind of begins when I do the original sketch because I draw the top of the head rather big..and then I learned from my class that you're supposed to add an extra inch or something when you're drawing the hair..but then everything becomes even MORE exaggerated. It's really nice to here that someone else noticed though..maybe that'll get me to start trying to tone down the hair a little bit

ANYWAY I think he's sexy and the coloring is ace. Love his hair and eyes. YES YES. Nice shirt too. <3
