i saw the title and was thinking "oo.. another SW fan art piece.. anikin bored as a young, impatient paduan (or however you spell it)" :P oh well its nice all the same, a little bland. the pose isnt all that intimidating, and isnt exactly set apart from the miriad of anakins out there. dare to try something different.

imo were seeing too much of his robotic middlefinger in relation to the angle of the light sabre. from what i can gather its overlapping the forefinger, which shouldnt be the case. round out the webbing between his thumb and forefinger, i know its a prosthetic but even so it looks a little out with the sharp V you have going now. lastly, it would seem you rendered his face either in a rush or with less confidence. it isnt definitive. show a little more of the expression youre after and youve got yourself a winner.

this is why i love this place, helps me see things i would normally not see =) as for the face and detail this sketch is about 3 1/2 - 4 inches tall. but i see your point and appreciate it. when i tighten up the detials on the comp i think it should flow better.
also i was thinking about twisting his lower half to give it a bit more movement wadda u think?

Right now I think he's resembling Paul Stanley from KISS more than Hayden Christensen, but I suppose you COULD take some liberties with the character.

eep. you used the flame tool? :dur: please dude steer clear from that in future. i dont feel flames are fitting for this piece (even tho he was burnt yadayada..) thing about this is it isnt challenging. you need a solid background. perhaps a whole heap of bodies? robots? i dunno just please not all flames.
