Pixel Joint Forum: bad hair

Message

Okay, so I think I'm done with this piece. I just wanted to post it up here for any suggestions. If I don't get any posts in a few days, I'll submit it. I would appreciate any comments, critique or edits. Thanks!

the frame for the mirror is wip, I just threw it together at the last minute.

	Maybe put more hair in the middle as well. Also the frame could be better the wood idea is nice it could be done better but I understand it's a WIP. Perhaps you could put some things behind him like maybe a towel rack or something. Also the had doesn't make sense unless it's in front of the mirror like in a first person view Edited by Sasuke-ish - 08 July 2010 at 11:13am

	I would go with the arm (although, at the moment, the arm anatomy is rather twisted). I think that having the arm there adds to the distraught feeling of the piece. However, since there's not all that much time left, you might just be better off removing it and focusing on the rest of the piece.

	Watch that purple down at the bottom of the mirror: it's the same as his skin and can cause some readability issues. Is there a size limit? If not, then I suggest rounding out the wooden edges of the mirror on either side. If there is a size limit, then I suggest letting it go out of the image rather than trying to cram it in.

	arm fix: better? wm- there is a size limit, but i still have room. I added a little bit to finish the sides of the frame but i don't really want to make more of the bottom because then I would have to add on to the guy... If you really think it would help I could do it within the time I have left. Edited by Adcrusher524 - 11 July 2010 at 3:43pm

	No, no dont worry about the bottom, the sides were what was troubleing me, and really helped in my opinion. I'd say a bottom-addition would be a low priority, "maybe if I have time" edit -- it really isn't that needed. I like it . the only gripe I have right now is the comb hand -- since it's a reflection, we should be seeing the back of the hand, not the front.
