wow, that guy looks great!

good design, really like the idea of the crack through helmet and scar on eye. really brings out the war look to him.

This is a brilliant piece, DB.

• Shading is excellent
• Expression is very compelling
• Style is quite striking
• Smoothest AA I can imagine

Also, it's reminding me of something (SNES game art?) that I can't place, but helps make it even more likable.

You have serious skill, and this has my vote.

Thanks for the great piece!

i love your shading style :) this is so neat yoo xD voting for it.. WELL DONE

the face looks great, really... real! as for the rest it reminds me of painted boards with holes in them where you put your face for a picture to be taken (like when you are at a fair or something) ;)

anyway the piccie its very demo-scene'ish 

Great style !

This guy looks like my neighbor.  ha ha    That's cool how you created depth on the face with all the shades.  I'm going to have to try something like that.  I've only been using 4 flesh tones...looks like you used 9.  How long did this take you?

Helmet seems a bit flat. Nice texturing!

No matter how many times I try, I cant make any piece at your style o.O

Well, is a good candidate to winner anyways :p

Nice piece ^^

See ya

 and we have a winner!
