I'm more in favor of the washed out look in the right pant leg (my right, not his) which I'm going to guess based on the materials you listed is mostly do to the oil pastels. It adds to the depression and fear you were trying to inspire. In the future you might want to try oil paints, they work to a similar effect but have the ability to be much more fluid and can get incredible fades and shadows. The viewing angle works very well, and hooded figures are always more intimidating. Try working on his expression a little more. Here it seems a tad too neutral to be considered one that truly insights fear. Add heavier shadows. Really angle the brow downward. It's okay to exaggerate if it means getting your audience to feel. Also the mouth should be more of one with contempt, or even a smile. The only thing more frightening then a man about to hurt you, is one who will enjoy it.

oooh, thanks very much! you gave me alot to work with :3 this is good, very good, as i need to be doing lots of development work with this idea oil paints is a good idea! although i dont have any of my own and our school art department has no moneys left for resources 'till april.... and we're out of turpentine... haha we have half-finished canvases just lying around at the moment... also, i thought that about the expression too i'll definately try to make it more threatening. it seemed the more i looked at it the less frightening he seems i probably will end up leaning towards a bit more of an exaggerated image for my final piece
and yeah!!! i really like the idea of a smile... it didn't cross my mind, but you're right i'll definately try it thanks so much for your helpful comments!
