I'm having a real hard time telling whats going on in the facial area. I see an eye, and some hair, but since the purposed direction of the face doesnt match the direction of the feet, it looks quite odd. The shoulder area lacks as well. People have shoulders, from which sprout arms. You might want to add both to this one.The shading is non-existant. Unfortunately, a single line of highlight and shade does not constitute shading. Pick a light source, invision the depth of the material and shade accordingly.
Good luck. :) ------------- http://www.ongamedev.com/ - OnGameDev |

Its very confusing, as said. Try making the guy nude first, then dress him to have better structure.

Yes, its looking better. It didn't take too much of a change, but I can at least tell that it has arms under the cape now. :) ------------- http://www.ongamedev.com/ - OnGameDev |
