A portrait piece I threw together for a good buddy's birthday. Turned out pretty good I think! Albeit some maybe overly excessive line work. Thoughts?


All drawn in Flash btw.

Interesting

I do find this one to be not bad and interesting. I do think your use of white space here is a bit bad, but nothing terrible. I would add more background features or textures and maybe even some designs to draw it all together. I understand with portraits that you need a focus on the main character but I feel based on your other work you could add so much more to the background here. I love the parot thing on the shoulder the most, it does have a top hat afterall, and the general teeth expression this man has as a character. I think that your cartoon art style is very unique and I hope more comes from this.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would add some more details to the background and limit the white space being unused.

Cyberdevil responds:

Hmmm that white background's really not the main focus you know. XD But you're right there is a bit much of it. Character could've been closer instead. And better centered. Might actually crop this one a bit... good noticing.

You have a really good overall structure, but there's something about his nose that stands out in a negative way.
I love the bird though. Not sure as to why, but I'm really drawn to it!

Cyberdevil responds:

Hmm the nose huh, now that you mention it the nostrils do feel a bit off, everything titled to one side-like. Glad you liked the big picture though; thanks for commenting!

Wow !! Man This Looks Awesome!!

Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks man. :)

This is cool! I like the top hat on the chicken thing.

Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks!

lol. Really?

Cyberdevil responds:

Not sure which part you mean in regard to the 'really'? Well, whatever you're asking about, if in question of something in the description: yeah, it's all real. :) Thanks for the stars!
