Description
From last night LiveStream session. I was doing a full body piece, but cropped it down to render in time.Somewhat different helm design, trying to establish some variations.

do you mind if i derive off of the head design?

That depends on what you mean by derive. Be inspired by it, sure, but copying parts would be uncreative
I always say it's better to be inspired by things from real life, or from more established artists work.

I like the focus in this one. The optical device look so absorbing. Brush strokes as texture is very good.

The blurriness of the work seems to add texture and depth to the work. Awesome job!

Thanks.
I think was the first guy means is that it's better to find detail and atmosphere in things other than loose work, which I agree on.

Whatever is looks like to you is good, it's supposed to cause resemblances and emotional response.

elegance,indeed is the only word that could describe this.i have to disagree on the "blurred is bad" idea.
to me the blur somewhat gives the essence of "three-dimensionality" in the armor.
from the top of the head down to the collar and the chest,you can somehow feel it just by looking at it.

interesting variation. considering the positioning of the eyes I bet he's got great field of vision.

Not the best up close, but over 270 degree coverage around.

I usually draw quads of glowing eyes, every once and a while I use these glassy ones though.
