Here is where I am for the orc pic. I still need to finish the helm and add some stuff to it. Any crits so far?

| Interesting looking piece. The technique looks nice, but the lighsources are a little weird. You might want to just try one lightsource from the upper left. There is some dark shading on its forehead beneath the helmet that really shouldn't be there. If it is from the helmet than it should be dark and very defined. The nose and mouth indicate light coming from below. Its the little things like that that make it difficult believe the picture. See what I mean? |

Well, Chapel beat me to it - suprise suprise 
I noticed the same thing he did - light sourse looks a bit off, though I don't think I would have been able to explain why to you as well.
The "camera angle" and pose may work better with a light source above an in front of the figure. Hmmmm..... Just my $0.02 |

Thanks man. After looking at it again it looks a little pale too. I am going to messing with it a bit to get the lighting right.

Cool pic.
I guess I agree with the light source, I thought it looked weird simply cuz you weren't doen with the helmet yet, but the above crits make sense.
My favorite part is the wetness under his nose and lips, that part looks wikedly realistic.
Very nice touch, I have never tried creating a wet surface but you did it very well, kinda makes me wanna try it now.
Great job, anyone for a game of WarCraft?
Later
