what do you think? it's totally new, but i really like it.

you might recognize it from my entry in the Bond Challenge:



it's the same entry original. (i posted it in outtakes as well)

here's my new one, w/out the dreaded "floaty head" thing.



honest comments, i will not get my feelings hurt.

thanks :D

The skin/ lighting looks good if you are going for a really dirty, grungy sort of feel. I think the eyes are a bit overdone though, you've lost all texture & veins in the white and there isn't even any graduation - just the white you've painted in. Sometimes it helps to do a dodge layer over the eyes, paint in the whites, blur that painting and then dial down the opacity a long way, so that you get a much more subtle whitening with at least some tonal graduation, if you want to go as far as taking all the veins out.

In both shots the eyes look like they were painted on to ping pong balls or something - quite disturbing!
