Not bad for your first try :kkthumbs

I would say the hair is a bit too bright, somehow reduces the feel of the his hair.

Yes, not bad at all for a first time. I think overall it seems like a "first layer" of coloring though, and you didn't add any more layers to it.

Pretty good for first try. I'd say, make the shading darker and add more shading in general... and don't be afraid to experiment with different colors, too. Keep practicing :)

you're doing pretty well, i must say! as for the 348 cover, try to stay on the same "level" when you're shading a bit more. now, some shades are waaaay darker than the base color, while some are barely noticable, know what i mean? the last two you submitted are much better, but you have missed coloring a few pixels, which makes the final result less attractive to the eye! but keep at it, you're getting there!

this too good to be the first, I think what might have put more details in the BG as a gradient or a different color :D
