So, it's been awhile since I've posted here. Learned a few things, still doing graphics, but being a full-time College student consumes quite a bit of free time. In any case, one of the games I play is text-based. Because of that, a lot of players like to commission or find art that represents their characters.
This is the original picture that someone else found for their character. Thing is... they wanted it bald, with a few scars and some sort of specific tattoo on the head.
I've been working on the baldness first and this is what I have. Don't worry about the ear, I can fix that. My problem is that my shading doesn't imitate the rest of the shading which appears to be done in pencil. I was wondering what I could do to better imitate the pencil shading and make it appear natural.
Also, I'll make sure he gives credit to the original artist by putting something at the bottom of the pic if he uses it. Otherwise it's simply a personal project of mine to learn from.
