Description
Kind of self portrait. At least I hope I looklike this way in this anglePhotoshop CS + Wacom Graphire 2 tablet (A6)
Around 30-40 hours
No reference used
Yet another lesson for me to reach next painting level. Strange, this time it wasn't painful to paint without reference. I found there are only few principles which has to be respected and after understaning them it's quite easy to paint them. Somehow it gaves me an artistic freedom.
See bigger version. It isn't as nice as it shall be, but I went time pressured at the end of painting.
Critiques (even nitpicking) are welcome and appreciated.
EDIT: Little update of the suggested issues. (Thanks for help, people
EDIT2 [MAY-29 2006]: repainted the character in according to suggestions. Thank you all for help!

The mood and lighting is wonderful.
The pose seems a bit stiff and unnatural.
Would have used a reference for this...a pose from the
back with this specific handling is difficult and a good ref
would make this an even better image IMO.
the left leg seems to dissapair into the ground?
So what is he (you

wow.
only issue I saw was the leg thing. I think because the leaves you have painted are all flat so it looks like flat ground. and my eye looks for a kneeling back leg but there isnt one. try and make some leaves that change in their orientation. rising up and partially covering your leg....
hope that makes sense...
amazing work!
