Skulldemon work in progress

[JOST]

From a pencil sketch ...
The head was painted with photoshop and the rest in painter. i think the difference is obvious. What do you think?
Maybe i should adjust to the whole painting!?

That's pretty sweet, man! There's a very expressive quality to the face and in the posing of the right arm. I'd suggest deciding on a focal point and working towards drawing the viewers attention to that. Right now, all that detail is fighting for dominancy. Also, I'm not quite sure what's going on with the hair yet- and you might want to add a bit of variety in the posing of the fingers on the left hand. Very cool, make sure you post the finished piece.

You`re right. The left hand is wrong. I will rework this part. In fact there are no hairs. I think horn is more suitable for a demon.
Thanks for your critics!

I like the close up work, but the whole picture is a little confusing to me. I think you need to think about the lighting of the whole image, not just a part like the face or hands. find where the large shadows would fall. this will help to show the figure in real space. also, the way it interacts with the background is comfusing too (maybe i'm easily confused). resolve what happens to his body at teh bottom of the painting.
