sharpp's first time (with nudity... kind of)

[sharpp]

So this is the first piece I've put up here. I decided to pull my finger out, and start getting paid for this drawing lark.

My background is very fine art-based, and I'm still playing with new styles that might help me in my quest for illustrating greatness.

This piece I'm considering entering on Threadless. Would love to have some feedback. Still getting a feel for going digital, so any tips or criticism would most welcome.

Thanks guys!

bumped, as i just worked out how to attach the image :bashful:

Very Egon Schiel. A few faults to mention... The torso is too wide at the top, the arms are too small, the hands are awkward and the mask thing gives no indication that there are any features under it, i.e. ears, nose etc. The feet are also oddly shaped.

Glad you caught the influence, big fan of Schiele's. Thanks for your crit, I totally missed the size of the arms and hands.

The mask is featureless as I wanted to convey a sense of anonymity and dehumanise the figure.

The feet look weird cos they're actually boots :P
