Another of those FIRST TIME posts...

Hej people,
I've been hanging around for some time, and I love this place, so I decided to try my luck with some of my work.
What do you think? Suggestions, criticism, praise, anything goes. I work a lot in photoshop with a bit of help from Lightwave when the time is right.

Hope you like it
Roberto

looks strange in a very cool way. Almost like a deformed or redone photography. Nice the blue shades in the face. Emitting from the bug, huh?

Very nice Roberto! Is that traditional or digital? The red suit is awesome....however I think the background detracts from the main subject. And the slight shift in the center edge is a bit confusing. Either assume assymetry (making it more assymetrical) or make it symetrical. One last comment is about the bug. Perhaps if it would stand out more (with a glow, or bright edge-highlights) you would have a better distinction between the man and the bug. I don't want to disourage you!

Waiting for more of your work...

I agree with andreasrocha. I DO think it is a great image, but andreasrocha's suggestions would vastly improve it. Keep up the good work and POST MORE!

Thank you very much, apreciate the comments. The pic is Digital, donw with my trusty Wacom tablet. I usually work with a refence picture and either do a complete paintover or just use it as a general guideline. Again thanks, for the feedback, I hadn't seen the simmetry thing till you mentioned it.
