Wait, all you did was edit Onek's edit! He didn't make the edit for you to use and then slightly alter; the purpose of his edit was just to demonstrate what you could do with your piece in order to address some of the issues. What you should be doing when someone makes an edit is firstly examine what the person did, then consider why they did it and then use your newfound knowledge, gained from studying the edit, to further improve your own art.
Nothing is gained from just recolouring other people's edits of your work. You will never really learn from your mistakes or progress if you just work off of others' edits (nor will it truly be your own work!).
Re-styled it. After checking out onek's version.
Now its a zombie self-portrait.
Your one is great, man!
Will try to redo it. Check back with it tomorrow plz guys.
wow reminds me alot of that guy from "planet terror"... http://www.pinupreviews.com/planet_terror.jpg
anyway, agree with lazer..
contrast is way too low, also u should change the palette since it causes some strange distortion where the orange meets the blue ( seems like there is a bright ppixel in between)... some banding issues with the hair aswell.
heres a little edit using a different palette with richer contrast.. nothing much changed but the colors

Heh, ok :) Thanks for the feedback!
Will correct shading soon.
There are no pupils, cuz i wanted to give it a zombie look ))
- Where are pupils?
- Why brows go lower than brow ridges?
- Also you're using very close shades of orange color that they are not contrasting enough and therefore not work as intended for shading.
Guys, sorry for messing it up. I have re-drawn this piece, close this thread if its possible please.
