nice work. It's kind of strange to see someone weilding a gun in a self-portrait but, um, whatever. Cool style.

that's a cool style
I got a problem reading the left arm/shoulder as the light doesn't really seem to apply on it ( and to some extend, same goes to the tshirt ) as it does on the face . cool oranges on the glasses .

Kick ASS Chester!!! Those sunglasses are worth every krone!

The style is really cool, I like those sharp edges.

(...Going home with secret self portrait plans.. mehheeheeeheehehe!!!)

Wow! I'm really digging that, especially the glasses

Only thing I'd critique is the hair, it seems like it could use a few highlights here and there. His left thumbnail looks a little flat too, but it doesn't really detract from the painting. Great style though, I like the skin tones

Don't shoot..... I duck! Style reminds me of the KMFDM Album covers. Little different but looks good.

Spooky · Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2001 9:04 pm

So hip, it's growing legs man! Way to go! I love this painterly style!

Christer · Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2001 10:12 pm

Drit-Cool!

Damn good Chester! I like this a lot!

(Forresten, hva med croquis'en? Dere har vel hatt mye � gj�re i det siste, eller?)

And how's your website coming along? Hurry up.. hehe

See ya,

Christer

Finer · Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2001 11:19 pm

Yes mucho cool! Where's your website?!

micke · Posted: Thu Jun 14, 2001 1:37 am

As i allready told you, i like this a lot. Looks like it's painted with Gouasche.
Like the fact that you left some areas flat like the hair. I also like the tones on the hands and the glasses rocks. The black frame around it adds a nice touch too!

Well balanced, not too much of anything, it's just right.

beautiful! excellent lighting, shading and foreshortening! please tell me you had photo reference! Any tips for creating such realistic-feeling works? I'm afraid my stuff always looks so painted and a smidge cartoony...

I am so impressed. ;} more??
