great job on the hands and face especially like the work on the clothing and lighting

Nice work...but in all honesty, he does look like he is wearing a wet suit.

very very nice work author...One of the top entry's for sure...I have the same nit pick as freejay,he's vest is to tight...

Shadows are inconsistent or missing. (Like inside the hood on his left side, and there wouldn't be a hand shadow on the chest).

......umm....different!

Good job, look quite convincing. Maybe you should change the shadow below his head a bit, because it's not round like that. GL

Thank you langstrum, I agree. I'll try to fix it within the next couple of hours.

Maybe just liquify the tip of his nose downward a tiny bit. Good concept to turn him around!

Good idea too, pearlie. Thanks! Will work on it.

Fixed! How is it now?

Hmm, quite better but not desired to me. The shadow should be more or less like that around his neck --> \/. About his nose, it's still not realistic, you can use the bloat tool in liquify to make the center of his nose tip (whatever, I don't know how to call) to be rounder. Just find an photo and observed the real nose than you can figure it out

Great feedback--much appreciated. I think I have an idea what to do now. Thanks again.

Pretty good, nobody thought of turning forward the man!

Okay here goes...attempt number 3. Altered the shadow again and fixed the nose (hopefully). How is it now? The bloat tool didn't work as desired so I blended it with another asian man's nose.

Good idea, but do something to alter the symmetry on the face, so it doesn't look like you just flopped it...otherwise it's a good image.

Thanks, CMYK. What would you suggest? Adding some assymetrical details to the features? I already did a bit of work on the hair so that it doesn't look too mirrored but I'm not sure what else to do. :/ This is my first try at attempting something like this.

Author, just play around...remove some shadows, etc...it shouldn't be hard to alter the symmetry.

Okay I get what your saying now. I fixed it up a bit. Any better now? Again, thanks alot for the feedback.

Yes, that's much better...good luck!

Thanks!

This looks very 'copy and paste' try adding shadows and matching colours and lighting

heheh! Good work author...

funny

if you add a bit of contrast to the gorilla or something even, it might bring it a tad more in line with the other items

Boot is to sharp,blur it a bit...gl
