Head Shot; Face Portrait of The Virus

Just my take on Virus. I happened to buy some new sketching pencils and these little miracle wonders known as 'blending stubs'. Using those sure as all hell beats ripping off teeny tiny bits of napkins/toilet paper/what-have-you to do 'proper shading'.

I might work on this a bit more form time to time as I see fit but, eh, I call it done for the most part.

Oh, and I hope not too many mind severely, I gave Virus more hair than is depicted on his image. I just seem unable to be satisfied with my own drawings unless they have some hair atop their heads. A vice I suppose.

Every time somebody titles something 'head shot', I come expecting violence. Videogames have corrupted me so...

Nice, thanks muchly =) Nifty to see characters in new styles, and an interesting effect with the medium. And the hair's pretty good, in line with your style. My hair kinda looks like that right now anyway :P

Quite good. Like the more typical anthro styling as Redfox has mentioned. Also got to like the sketch feel and the shading.

Heh. Yes, the sniper factor occured to me just as I hit the submit button, but eh. And I feel a bit better if that's some-what how your hair actually works. Ties in your character with you a bit closer then, eh? Ah well. That, and I'm too lazy to fix it now.

Thanks to everyone, as well. Yes, as for the shading, I managed to get ahold of some new art supplies, which included some blending stubs, and I wanted to give them a go. Needless to say, I think I've fallen in love with them.

And I was going more for the Sonic style, but I can see the differences. Sorry about that.

I just noticed that his right ear is too small. Dammit.

Oh shit, man, I guess so! Didn't even recognize you. :P Now, if we could just get Neckron in here, we'd have roughly...well, everybody I'm aware of on OTG that reads EN.

Well, there is Cobalt...but methinks without a 'World's Longest Thread', he'd shrivel and die. Can't have that, I suppose.

And thank you, everyone, for the comments and compliments.

Another friend of mine from above mentioned board said he looked as though I pissed him off somehow.

I then told her that Lothar did it.
