Description
Another age study. Trying to do a mid to late teen this time... I had some pretty solid reference this time around, a photo of a homeless kid, I changed his expression, he had a little too much ego.Related content

I think maybe if he and Sasha had a wee one.

Great expression! And logically, amazingly drawn too.

Something about the nostrils seems a bit off to me, but other than that this is really amazing.

amazing lighting and contrast between detail and rough as usual, also a very emotional and - as someone else said - compelling expression.

I cannot help but feel such compassion for this guy. His expression is perfect, the realism is lovely, and I just really love this whole image and concept.

This image is very humbling. His expression really tugs at my heart, and I really feel bad for him

Wow that's pretty sad to think of being homeless as a 16 or 17 year old. You've captured the pathos well.

I don't know how his original expression looked like but wht you've given him suits the mood very well

I would be surprised to see a man survive being homeless without an ego. The US doesn't take pity on the less fortunate, only the ones trying to conform. It's very sad but true.
I really like this piece though

once upon a time my old room mate stitch and his friend were walking around Houston and a guy pulled a gun on him, being the gutter punk he was he put his mouth around the barrel and said, "do it" the guy tripped out and was like "damn you're fucking crazy you can come chill with us" then he took them to 5th ward, if you've ever heard of that. cops dont go there, homeboys with m16s on the roofs they had to radio in before they turned the alleyway corner, otherwise they'd be shot. then after they were let in they smoked pot and played wii for three hours and left.
