Alright, I actually started this a long time ago, but lost motivation for some reason. But now I want to do this again.

Right now, I want to get the head down before I work on the body, as that'll be easier for me to work with. However, I'm not sure about the face right now, but I did make two versions of it.

Any critique will be much appreciated.

(Note: that mugshot on the left has inaccurate colors.)

I can do a lot of things, I just never bother to do most of them.

First thing I noticed is that you're trying to cramp too much detail into his face, for example the highlight on his lips and the detailed nose... it looks a bit cluttered that way
Mind if I try my hand at an edit?

I only wish I had a big f**king Mech...

Anyways,

I think I went a bit overboard with that edit. (which ultimately led to this )

Oh well, main thing I tried to fix with that edit was the readably of the face because I think yours was a bit cluttered...

Holy sh*t, Serious-Coop is serious.

B'yeah, I'll definitely try to work with that as an example. You making a full body also shows me that I need to change the reds on the palette, since the highlight from that chick's dress may be a bit too silky. ;P

I'm getting somewhere with this. =D

I think the head is just about done. Using the episodes I've downloaded as references, I've learned that the shape of the face in that portrait on the left there is a bit off. So I think I managed to fix it.
