Description
Photoshop is fun! I was trying out a few tutorials I found here on this picture and they all came up reasonably good for my first go. So thanks to everyone who has a tutorial in my favorites.This is Rico. He's been fighting with a Spanish resistance group for the past 3 years. The thing in his hand is the pendant his now deceased girlfriend used to wear. His sword has a type of wind turbine in it that helps him gain speed and momentum. He's one of the main characters in a piece of fiction I'm writing right now.
I certainly could have done better with the linework, but I was more focused on colour. I've been filling up a copy book with drawings of all my characters and I'll upload sketches of the other characters soon enough.
EDIT: Changed the line work a little to make his coat seem less flat and his jaw more natural.
EDIT 2: Rotated the pic and smudged the sea up a bit so make it look less like he's leaned back (was supposed to be the wind pushing him back a bit but looked more stupid the more I looked at it).

You have pretty good lighting in there. You should work more on clothes and wrinkles (in cloth). The face definitely shows him reminiscing and sorts, but the face needs more work in structure. Keep practicing!

I agree. His coat is very flat looking. Thanks for the tips!
