this would honestly feel a lot more symmetrical to me if your hands were not mucking about in the picture throwing a tilt on my perspective. you have introduced a second variable that you have tried to make symmetrical, and mostly succeeded in, but they are not symmetrically placed around the skull and it comes off feeling disjointed.
The primary subject is definitely interesting enough to stand on its own and i feel you are going to lose points on this for the above stated reasons.
a 6 from me, probably would've been an 8 or 9 without the hands |
