the problem right now is not whether to go more realistic or to go in a more stylistic direction, imho there is a huge style gap between the body proportions and the face, if yu want to go for a more toony, more stylized character - fine i'm totally with you but then the face needs to be less naturalistic, more stylized
All good crits, while I don't want it to specifically -be- torchlight per say, I just want to get away from the realism department. Torchlight was just the most recent thing I played with a good style etc to follow as an example. While I like the body shape, I'm not really digging the giant hands and feet. It feels like…
you are not your work :) i know its hard to let loose, but you are not your work you neither have to defend yourself, or take every piece of criticism you can take from here, some might work better than others, some might even not apply, didn't read all of them basicly what i'm now saying is just subjective and isn't abut…

Okay I should have been more specific. When I said there was no modern current hand painted I meant stylized unrealistic the way fantasy stuff is portrayed and hand painted. Like, think Torchlight in every single way, no changes only they are wearing jackets and jeans with guns, modern attire instead of leather and…
Haha yes I know it's been dragging on. I sorta wish I could change the thread title since it's not really even about the face anymore. The checklist is now: Coat/Shirt/Sleeves Final assessment and touch ups Color! Final Final Assessment and more touch ups. Accessories (Not pictured) which includes: -Bandoleer -Backpack…
I've stopped checking/replying this thread while I am at work from now on because I get too distracted replying to it, so I'll batch reply when I get home from now on. First @pior: I'm only working on a 512x512 map right now, the face part takes up around 256x256, I wasn't really going for having him look like these:…
