love the link.

I'm sorry. That was a generalized statement; not directed all at you.

Isn't that how all this got started in the first place?

nice rant. i agree. copying is a fine exercise as long as you credit the original photo. using your own voice is always a greater risk--which is why it's much more fun on all sides. in the fine art world, artists who do this sort of thing always add an indicator in the title. they'll say, "after ____insert artist's name". what gets me are those "pros" in galleries who blatantly lift another artist's style and call it their own.

this is really good dark...killer´s face is deep

Thanks guys. This was actually inspired by music. I was listening to some random internet radio station and they started playing some sad tune with a choir and a thunderstorm in the background. I thought "Hey, it would be cool to do an animated short with that tune." But seeing as animation is very time consuming, I decided to go with a comic instead :P

This is awsome. it seems like a page out of a good comic book with a good story wich is rare, Good Job and i totally dig your style s much detail and all your work is very complete and perfect.

LOVE it.

I only wish 'mando was my real bruzzah :< but he's my girlfriend (too) now

That looks cool as hell .Great job on the colors.

.

Agreed...
C'mon alex, give us some slobber!

Sorry guys. Don't have enough space to add slobber. Already 22.5kb over.

Man... that is pretty creative, yet it gives me the creeps. ^__^

AWESOME! I am loving your style! *attempts to steal top-hat*

Good linework in the face and hat. I think it might need a little more shadow on the face, so the shadows will match up better with the hat and neck. Or you could just leave it alone because it looks good as is.

my guess is 1.1%. =0P.
p.s.- it's a serious guess.

it's impossible to tell from the data given. you'd have to know the area of B to know, because the final expression is 55 / (800*B) since A = 4B.

check the units. suppose the areas were in square meters. for the percentage you end up dividing that first part by the second part. but the first part is in meters squared, and the second part is in meters squared squared, or meters to the fourth power. when you divide them out, you end up with units of "1 per square meter" which doesn't make sense as a ratio, which means not all the variables will cancel out.

Yeah, zack's answer is probably right. Leave it up to him to figure that out.

Okay, how about now? Try giving The Area Of, say, B, 10". Now can you?

The lighting is just amazing on this.

So are you saying the missing link is a Margaret Keane's orphan? just kidding--very appealing painting.

I really, really like the nose. A lot. Do you think you post the reference picture, if you used one?
I love this.

Nice one. That lighting is pretty neat. :)

i really like this kind of lighting. very nice job

yess shiney shiney

Not bad. It needs much more contrast in the ear.

Yeah I thought so, I suck at dark shading...
