Dabura CG

[opensource]

felt like drawing some DBZ stuff, so I chose to do a cg of dabura. c&c welcome, I want to know what I should do to make this perfect

EDIT: here's the updated pic
EDIT #2: updated again

I may do the body at some future point in time, and sorry about the bland background, but I didnt feel like making a cool one right now

 

[dudeman]

some more intensive specular lighting and abit more shadows under, for example, the eyelids, ears, horns... this is needed to give it more depth and realism.

 

[opensource]

yeah, I know the horns needed more shadows, fixing that right now, but its not like his skin is metal or anything, so I dont think intense speculars are what it needs.

 

[Amayirot Akago]

He looks too happy IMO. Narrow his eyes a bit.

 

[opensource]

maybe he is happy yeah, I see what you mean, I'll fix that

 

[Bolteh2]

it looks too flat, i dont tget the feeling that this image is alive, if you know what i mean...

the shades and highlights are too soft

 

[Mr Smo]

good stuff man <_>

 

[Mystix]

Looking good man, the only thing I see that needs some work are the eyes. Make Dabura mean and ruthless.

 

[madgik]

Thats quite good, and yer his expression needs a little work unless u were looking to do dead dabura all fluffy and wubby. gj dude.

 

[opensource]

well, I took what everyone said into consideration, I've posted the updated pic as you can see

 

[The_Real_Legend]

Well that still isn't ruthless... Look at smo's sig

 

[opensource]

No. Look again.
-Narrowness of eyes.
-Angle of eyebrows
-smirk/evil grin: more definied(yours looks too much like an normal smile
-and well you can "cheat" half-way by placing half the eye under the eyebrows, what makes faces look more angry.
