Description
And so we have it: my version of Ken Masters who looks exactly like Terry Bogard!I actually drew in Terry's cap in the sketch, but decided not to add it since it was for an Alpha3 challenge and would be out of character.

My very first digital painting. I'm actually quite okay with the finished piece. But look at the difference in colours between each arm and the face! Oh well, I guess you gotta say "that's enough" at some point.
I don't know... I don't really like painting. It's so tedious. Think I prefer drawing...

Critiques encouraged.
A big thank you to all the people who kept asking me to colour my stuff, and for those who helped give crits along the way.

Haha... thanks for the fav man!
Yeah thanks for the crits too! Is not easy to "make things darker" when the contrast is so great. Sometimes when you put the correct value the whole thing just looks funny. I need more practice... haha.

I think your coloring looks really good, I can't believe it's your first attempt at digital coloring o_O You did an outstanding job with the shading and the lighting. It looks great, and your linework is ace as well. Congrats!

Nice work on the colouring, you have an excelent sense of form and light.
This is even more amazing considering this it your first digital painting.
Most people take years to get this good.
What program did you use?

Thanks for your comments.
Photoshop 7.
Three days for the lineart, about a week for the colours (on and off).
Prior to this, I've been trying to brush up my pencil work. But that didn't mean I couldn't observe form, light and colour during that time. The observation really helped loads.
