Adding some color:
What signature?
danlambert - really nice job man. Love the robe renderingWould be cool if you backlit him using the same color as the skulls eyes.
Obliviongrin - Awesome Idea, I get alot of the story from this, or at least I can make up a storyI also like the Idea of him as a greek god type character.
VoxInaudita - I like the mummified look hes got! I really get the old and tired from him
Amedyr - nice inkingI wana see Death Jr. on his lap! heh
I plan to add some sort of hourglass on his pole with light shining through and maybe a dead guy in the background evaporating into the mist.

Sketchbook!
Mephistoau: Like it a lot, awesome style, but: I think the design needs some elements to make it Father Time rather than just an old dude, and I don't think that mohawk of hair in the middle of his head works at all. Be better with just the strands.
RichLyons: Bad. Ass.
ArtByManon: Awesome! But I've got to say, I like the cropped version with just the face and the hand better.
Baron Impossible: I love it. Nothing useful to say.
danlambert: Great doom atmosphere.
Here's a bit of an update on mine.
the idea is that father time is the dude who takes care on the moon circle. He has a long beard and long hair which form a cloud on which he rides the sky. Every night he makes a new moon and when he has finished his work he cuts of the fine silky threads with his scythe causing a new moon to rise at the night sky. At the same time people whose thread of life he has cut will die. Oh yea and he has a hookah because he has been there since the beginning of time so he has to be a laid back dude who has all time in the world to chill. The glowing tobacco on the his hookah is supposed to symbolize the morning star.
Malakuko: the skelleton thing is a cool idea, but I suggest you pay more attention to the proportions - I find the hands reaching down to the knees make him look too much like a gorilla

Now with added Kirby Krackle!
Think I'm prettymuch done, just needs a few tweaks and a background.
Here's where I'm at... Don't know if I'll finish!
trying to finish it on time, but seems hard. time is my enemyI'v being enjoin to work on this character I'm so much in to it. thanks Arthemis
RichLyons I love it. super cool
AndreRuben Very promising. love the that you place it on a roof top. it's kind of story telling
IVIATT Yeah man!
I apologize for the lack of comments and crits
my update. I would like to make it look like an old tarot card figure.
Some great entries.
MasterTroglodyte
Good concept. Perhaps use colours to highlight father time.
Ruri
Reminds me of Nordic mythology
Zeitwolf
Nice. cant help thinking of time when I see him. Maybe make the concept stronger with some time-symbol or a young kid walking behind him or something like that. Perhaps add the shadow on the ground.
Jonathan C
Great light and look in his face.
Obliviongrin
Beautiful. Are you going to have it in colours?
danlambert
Awesame I love the light.
Si_Swe
I really like the concept.
So many more great entries.
Cant resist jumping in late.
Posted my first take on Father Time in the crit. center, it got torn apart, I learned something new. Started over, here's the graphite comp:
Not much time left, draw, draw, draw!!!!!
Well here's another WIP. I've gotta go to work now :'( Hopefully i'll get the chance to finish it off when i get home before the deadline hits, but i dunno coz i'm crap with timezones haha. But here's where it's at atm
Thanks for the comments, guys. Some more on it this morning. I'll finished it off later. Nice work, everyone!

Paintover of malakuko's image.
There's something quite disconcerting and eerie about the design of your character that i'm really diggin, almost like something out of a dream.
You did a real good job on the face, all i've done is just simplify details because as a whole it felt a bit over worked and confusing, also bumped saturation up a bit because it was looking a little dull in the darker areas. Try and play with bouncing light and hold back from using black for shadows if you can.
"Don't fink!...feeeeeeewwl" -Bruce Lee
until now my Father Time looked like some ordinary old man walking...
My concept is detached from standard symbols of western culture and has a more natural approach. I hope it still counts. Can hardly show that in the image, but if he stands those plants will grow higher (maybe even trees) and ground will wither...
Is that too far from the assignment?

Zeitwolf - The long arms were a choice, I dont want to use the general proportions of a man because I want the piece to seem unreal. I did beef up the legs though!
Baron Impossible - Really nice man! I love your work, I remember years ago seeing it on CGsociety and wanted to oil paint haha
Rusty - My first paint overAnd who better to do it! Its funny you mention the dream, thats what I was going for, glad it came across. All of your suggestions really helped. I used to always paint very unsaturated, I guess its creeping back haha. I like what you did with the face! I kept mine the same but I did tone down alot of the details which hopefully draws the viewer more into the eyes.
I think im done! But just because I cant think of anything else to fix doesnt neccesarily mean im done heh.
