WIP Critique Photojournalist 1971

[Meehan34]

I thought I'd share some progress of my photojournalist. I have just started on the cameras but the rest of him is getting close to complete. I made his skin very warm to contrast with the green jacket. For some reason all the various tones and shades don't photograph well. Let me know what you think.

 

[Ferris]

Whoa Mike, that looks seriously well!
How about a blue or red background? Maybe that contrasts his colours to bring some life to the pictures.

The skin tones look very nice... but I think the white hair is something that really catches the eye on this bust. Different, but really well done.

Brilliant, the white hair idea I like and gives this piece a unique look

Yes, I still hate you!

 

[Meehan34]

Thanks guys! I'm glad the white hair is to your liking, he just looked to me like he needed white hair.

 

[housecarl]

That does look well Mike, the jacket is especially nice.

[Mike Stevens]

Nicely done Mike. You've been busy lately! I like white hair as well. The cameras look good too!

 

[Martin Antonenko]

Bravo!

Beautifully painted and the choice of colour is excellent.
Brilliantly executed all round, well done.

A different perspective well executed

I like it a lot Mike. It might be one of your best bust up to date. I like the jacket especially very much. There is only one thing that may need attention in my opinion. I am talking about eyes, you could try to bring them to live a little bit more.

 

[DEL]

Great job Mike. I like everything about this.
Cheers

Nice work ! the hair and level of contrast you have worked in is great ... maybe id tweek the eyes some more but cannot tell from the images buddy.

excellent painting

 

[Andrew Craft]

Very nice work Mike, your higher contrast style of painting really suits this figure it brings a bit of life to the figure.
Looking forward to seeing the finish.
