Self Portrait

[Wes]

WIP, C+C on the shading on the face plz

[Owlthief]

whoa, pretty good. however, do some shading on the forehead. (do you really look like that? lol)

[Wes]

Yeah, I said it was a WIP and I wasn't done with it yet. And yes, I look like that.

[Cshad]

Looks really out of shape. I mean, it looks like you have no forhead, and the head takes the shape of the hair >>

[Hesher]

picture ref?

[Wavey]

I don't know much about anatomy and junk, but the shading sure looks like it can come out nicely. I recommend you start hue-shifting as you go darker down, so basically make it a little bit more red as you go. Try contrast for the lighter colors too. You could even try a little bit more colors if you want. But yet, head does look disproportionate.

[Wes]

Well maybe its the ref I took of myself that had a weird angle. But I'll try working on the forhead area a bit

[Wes]

Alright, update. I finished the face and reshaped the head
I dislike the color of the lips, but thats the closest I could get to making them pink without it looking too much like lipstick

[Rosencrantz]

I'd say don't give the lips so much of an outline.

[Oddball]

Agreed, that's what makes it look like lipstick.

Also, finish so we can C+C harder. :/

You know, it's hard to crit a self-portrait without the reference picture. Post that along with the sprite and we can crit more effectively.
