Description When I was little I saw a picture with a young lion. Not cub, but still skinny and with a short mane. Since that time I always say my big brother- Stanislav looks like such lion. Not only because of his wavy hair, about which he definitely has a great complex. Propably to hide them, Stan always cuts them quite short and combs back. That only made them looks like a mane of a lion. But there's also long face, big nose and dark eyes. He was tall and with a stringy body structure only completes the look of lion
When Stan was about twenty, his style became similar to these gloomy detectives from American books. We didn't have American movies in cinemas, but Stan’s metamorphose happened somehow by itself. Always stubble, he wore only second hand coat. His clothiers also looked alike they never been ironing. About this time my brother started to smoke, but didn’t stop nail biting. Everything makes him looks like person after hard time. Stephen Nowak

One of characters from unfinished novelet that I have wrote. The story is about two brothers whose lived in Warsaw during II World War. Stilol unfinished, but I couldn't resist drawing him

Kiedy byłem mały, zobaczyłem zdjęcie z młodym lwem. Już nie lwiątkiem, ale nadal chudym i tylko zalążkiem grzywy. Od tego czasu zawsze mówiłem, że mój starszy brat- Stanisław wygląda jak taki niedorosły lew. Nie tylko ze względu na jego faliste włosy, na na których punkcie miał jakiś kompleks. Chyba, żeby je jakoś ukryć, Stasiek zawsze strzygł się dość krótko i zaczesywał je do tyłu. a to tylko zwiększało efekt lwiej grzywy. Ale była jeszcze pociągła twarz, duży nos i ciemne oczy. Był także wysoki, o żylastej budowie ciała co tylko dopełniało lwi wygląd.
Koło dwudziestki, stylem Stasiek zaczął się upodabniać do tych ponurych detektywów z amerykańskich kryminałów. Jasne, nie mieliśmy wtedy amerykańskich filmów w kinach, ale przemiana Staśka w ta stronę przyszła jakoś sama z siebie. Zawsze nieogolony, nosił płaszcze z drugiej ręki. Jego ubrania również wyglądały jakby nigdy nie widziały żelazka. W tym czasie mój brat zaczął też popalać, ale nie przestał obgryzać paznokci. Wszystko to sprawiało, że ​​wyglądał jak człowiek, który już sporo przeszedł. Stefan Nowak

No to mam i jakiś polski akcent na Deviantarcie. Oto Stasiek Nowak- postać z mojego opowiadania o dwóch braciach żyjących w Warszawie w trakcie II Wojny Światowej. Opowiadania jakoś nie mogę skończyć, ale to nie mogłam się oprzeć od narysowania Staśka.

I really like this drawing, there are some things to work on of course, but other than the minor details you've done an amazing job at it. Firstly i believe that the shading on this is beautiful, and you've done an amazing job to add a 3D effect to the drawing. And the background is rather well done too, though i do believe you could do a bit more to the hands, and how they are angled, i just think they look a little fat, but that's just my opinion, sorry if if offends you. Though amazing job done here.

Alright, this is a pretty cool character, but I have a few little suggestions, should you choose to accept them.
The good:
The body is pretty well-drawn, and the shading is fantastic. I like the hair and eyebrows as well. The mouth and beard are okay, but I'd move up his mouth just a bit.
Tweaks you could make to improve:
His nose is long. Like, really long. It's a bit too long. I'd suggest making it about half as long.
The eyes are on his forehead. He has no forehead, in fact. If I were you, I'd move the eyes down-start them just below where they end here, and halfway down between the new eyes, start the nose.
Please don't take this as an insult, you are a good artist and have a great amount of potential!
Overall: I'm enthralled with the colouring, again, and most of it is great.

Really thank for suggestion. Yeah, Stan's nose was from begin to became long (family feature- all has long or big nose), cause I wanted to experiment with style more somewhere between manga and western style. Looks alike I overdo
