Colored Norse Man

[DRESDEN]

Hi folks, here's that Norse man i posted a while back. I colored it in Photoshop. I"m not happy with it, i kept going back to it a whole bunch of times, because i'm busy with school.

C & C welcome

Try working with less saturated colors, the blue of the boots, the the bright green really throws me off. Also, I'd like to see your background worked a bit more, and try to think it terms of a color scheme for the whole piece.

Nice job so far, just keep working it until you find what suits the drawing best.

thats right, the colors arent chosen very well but thats not my crit... i would color the areas with flat color and add more values to it. your colored areas looks like washen or something,try to define the shadows andlet the pic look like
a body. right now its too flaten for me

It's a good start, but the one thing that stands out right away is his legs are to short. It looks like you were running out of paper and finished up the legs. The legs should go down a bit further. The left arm could be fixed up a bit, but I think the height is the main problem. Keep it up, nice start.
