Description REAL MEN SHAVE WITH COMBAT KNIVES.

I haven't made a peaceful picture with some sunshine going on in years. Maybe it was about time? Besides, I believe my priest could use a bit more cheerful images too xD

I'm pretty happy with how it came out, the eyes could probably use some work still, but I'm feeling increasingly comfortable drawing noses

Hope ye like at least a bit

I was thinking of the almost exact thing as the first bolded line before I even read it. And you're right, not everyday is a dark day. So this is a nice contrast. I was about to mention that the eyes look a little funny/off, but then I read you mentioned about them too... so screw that. xΒ΄D (not literally though) Poor man has got a lot of them scars. But I guess he's more proud than suffering from them?

Manly is manly. Great work!

I think his face looks a bit like when you stare into a camera from a weird angle xD Kinda charming, but you know you look like an idiot xD I have so much to practice when placing eyes and choosing size on them still... *_*

Ah yes, them scars... Clumsy youth..? xD
Thank you very much for the lovely comments!!

Is he shaving his own skin off or is that loose skin hanging off his face just an old scar? That part is a bit unclear. To me it looks like he is peeling it. Also, the brown cross on his arm is a tattoo? It could be a bit less dark, now it looks like it isn't a part of his skin.
At first I thought the background was a bit too saturated but it actually balances the image since there is a lot of brown in it. I don't think there is anything wrong with the image, the little details I mentioned don't really ruin it as a whole. It's a good painting that simply screams "manly", which is propably what you were going for.

If he'd be peeling his skin off, I'd definitely add some blood xD Besides, the sharp side of the blade is opposite the scar (I even added some hair falling from shaving... c: )

Tattoos are in fact really dark, especially if they're usually covered from sunlight (which is the case here since he's a priest), I should know since I've got quite a few Since this is supposed to be made in black ink only, I think it is pretty much the right brown/black shade to give that effect? Or no?

The sky came out a lot darker than I first planned, but it didn't scan too well either :/ There's some ochre showing in the lower part of the sky on paper, but it's not that clear on screen (at least not my screen).

Anyhow, thanks for taking the time to give your opinion on this

Now I see the falling hair, it looked like neck shading at first glance. The shape of the scar is also weird. And I dont know why but the tattoo still doesn't seem to work too well in my eyes, it might not be the darkness but the woodlike texture on it. But like I said, minor details. Would have felt bad to say 'it's perfect, no room for improvement' after you asked for a critique.

very unique style you have... wonderful portrait... and a handsome man shaving with a dagger is always appreciated... especially if he is that masculine as this guy.
