its good, first try or tenth. will pass nicely as an amateur colouring. only criticism is that the shading on the face doesn't flow.

I agree with cheekymon3y, everything looks great its just looks like he a has one or two tapeworms in his face. But besides those few things, it looks amazing. Wish I could do it ^_^

pretty good tho it looks like you're using the burn/dodge tool to shade you should stay away from that. oh and are u using a tablet or mouse?

thanx to all for aswer.

I´m using a mouse, but i´m not using burn/dodge.Im using a color as a base, then I apply other color to make the shadows and another one to (try) to make the light.
What tool should i use to make shadows?

Guess i need more practice, XD.

well i go from dark to light. oh and stick with the brush tool and just mess around with different levels of opacity and flow. i use 60 42 tho i do have a tablet and i tend to color more in painter. but if your serious about this then i suggest you check out deviantart.com for tutorials, google color theory (even i dont get this yet), and prob invest in a tablet although you dont have to. ive seen people color with mice and blow my tablet colors out of the water. but keep with it you've got a long road ahead and practice practice practice.
