Street Sharks - John Bolton (Ripper) WIP

MaxDeAntonis

Hi Polycounters! I'm new here and looking for feedbacks to step up my game.

This is my latest WIP, RIpper from the Street Sharks show.

I'd love to receive feedbacks and critiques to improve my skills as a character artist.

Have a nice day everyone

Looks cool, a couple of things bother me a bit though,  his fingers are kind of sausage like with no definition, his belt is kind of a blob and there is something about his pants that makes it look like he´s wearing three layers of different pants under them, might be too bumpy.

I agree, thanks for the feedback, I wanted the jeans to look tight because of his mass, I'll try to fix it.

Looks nice so far. I really like his eyes and mouth interior.
My few points  are:

The belt and belt buckle looks blobby,
Give him a different fingernail color to create more contrast,
Furthermore adding wrinkles to create the illusion of skin and work on your roughness. His skin looks like plastic and I'm missing the feel of shark skin also the teeth looking not glossy enough.
Could be interesting to work with two types of values for the darker and lighter skin parts and then make a transition between them via point blending.

Hope this help's '

Thank you for the feedback. I totally agree the texturing and shading could use some more love.
