This guy is called Elegy, hes a character I made a while back. Im trying to get some PA practice so I thought I would make him. Its still a wip, and the shading is still unfinished as well as the hand, which will soon hold a gun.

C+C so far? The pose is supposed to look like hes already shot the gun.

Those smaller versions are great. The colors, yummy!!

The bigger version does not have the same coolness :(

Lol, ya like jalonso said, I really like those smaller ones

Better now?
Also, 1, or 2

EDIT:


Should I do something similar to the third ones leg position? I think its more readable now.

Its really rough, I can see a few flaws with it, but something similiar to that?

Which pallete do you think I should use? The original, or one of the newer ones?

Depends on BGs and other game elements but as-is I like the new version.
The brownier version, not the pink version.

The pose is extremly stiff, and if he is sopose to just have shot with a gun, well, something is just not right. The body does not have enough motion to it, it right now, just feels like a mannequin put in a pose, all the limbs feels very "attatched" in the same way as one to. Even the movment seen in the scarf feels very artificial, it works in the smal model, but on the big one it just mades it more unnatural.

I say take a look at your smal one again, the pose is a lot more relaxed and natural. How his back and head sags a bit, the arms in comforteble possition and you can feel and se the gravity in the legs. But nothing of that is captured in the bigger moddel.

I would say to redoing the hole pose itself ones more, becose right now it does not look well thought through.

Other then that, a great piece piece skill wise, the rendering and coloring is great, but do like the smaler one more :) for the color I enjo the 3:rd from the right the best, have something for lightcolors.

cheers.
