Hello people,

I will introduce myself first because this is my first post. My name is Jeff Sapulettey, I am 16 years old and I live in the Netherlands. I am into digitalpainting for like 1 year but I liked to draw since I was an old baby...little child :) so here is my first piece on this forum.

I have worked 2 hours on it, it is not the original size...not that the original size is much bigger or something...:) I didn't use a reference. I used photoshop for this and my wacom.
I hope you like it, critics and comments are welcome.

Greeting,
DOBSC

i quite like it! the faded color looks really cool. however i think he looks a bit flat because the shades arent contrasting enough. apart from that i think the right side of his body is buldged in a bit too much. very original style tho!

I removed the fog/clouds so you can see the acrobat better:

btw I made more contrast with the photoshop tool :)

the only comment i would make is that it should not de a close-up. If we were zoomed out a bit more maybe we would recognize what the person is a bit better.

hmm....the 1st one is alil too misty though..can't really show the depth between the subject and the background..
the 2nd one is much better though..better contrast :)

keep it going
