Description Long time no art, I'm really sorry... as usual. Ah, you've heard it all before from me. School, deadlines, etc. Plus I've had the extra stress of UCAS, so all that laughing at my classmates last year when they were complaining about applying to universities has now come back and bit me on the metaphorical arse. Ouch.

Sooo, this guy is from a story I started writing ages ago, which I'm still quite fond of. He is supposed to look quite bummed out, as I guess you would if you'd just had to kill your own brother. Or something dramatic like that.

I knooow his torso is bending in a way torsos shouldn't really bend, but I am so incredibly proud of the fact this is *finished*, nnggh! Oh, I apologise about the emo-hair. It just crept in, there was nothing I could do to stop it. *pained look*

.Photoshop CS, Wacom tablet no refs. Started it a good few months ago I think, I'm so slow! There are progress steps at [link] if you're interested.
^_^

BAHAHA ... why appologise for emo hair?? o.O emo hair= gooooood :d soo yeah i like this pic ... A LOT... i love the expression on his face.... it really makes you want to know what has happened.... and i love how the bird is just about to alight on his hand... that tension there helps with the overall effect

looks good....there is life in his features....only crit is what you already have pointed out re abdomen - you might be able to alter the effect by raising the waistband on his trousers...as his torso looks long in comparison to his pelvic area....just a thought, very impressed!

Wow, he has a really intense facial expression! But I love the hand and the bird most of all. Niiiiice. Although the hair (minus a yellow bit) reminds me of someone... Hope this isn't a reflection of your own dark anguished feelings (I was trying to cheer up a different miserable McG last night and it didn't work )
Oooh, a story! I wanna know!

P.s. progress steps ROCK. It's sooo cool to see the work in progress! It really helps highlight how much work and detail goes in. I especially love the little mermaid drawing

hey, you're doing UCAS too? What're you applying for? I'm getting stressed because I have four identical offers and a fifth I'm not going to accept, so I therefore have no insurance...

lovely picture!

wow you never fail to amaze me with your talent yeh the torso is a little bit funny and possibly the right hand is ever so slightly disproportionate, though i can't nail exactly what it is about it ... but the head and hair and everything else are just incredible. oh and the whole uni thing has finally got good for me (got an offer to read medicine @ balliol college oxford ) hope all's going well for you too

Long time no ANYTHING! I'm glad you made a little reappearance... We little people need you around here. I really like it.... the whole tone and the shadows... it's just so dark and it really gives off emotion in a good way. LOL I haven't been finishing anything lately...

yeah, His torso also seems a little long. I have a tendency to do that as well--but I can't do this stuff half so well as you can anyway. I don't see why he's so upset--he's got a raven! If I had a pet raven, I would be absolutely overjoyed--even if I did have to kill a sibling. j/k.

I know!! Ravens are just so cool. I always wanted a pet squirrel though. I really don't know why; they're just rats with bushy tails. I like rats too though! *grin*
I'm glad the raven is appreciated!! I think I got its tail a bit wrong though... oh well. Thank you!!
