I'm not sure whats supposed to be a "certain" way and whats not.. but is the mouth supposed to end eruptly like that (the area near the hand) ? it looks like you tried to end it so that the hand isnt blocking it.. but it doesnt look natural - so unless hes a monster or something and his mouth is supposed to look horrid - thats one thing i noticed...

plus the nose.. the entire face is slanted.. but the nose is still pretty set straight forward.. the ear also looks a bit out of place..

but overall.. it looks really good Smile

You can add the claw like finger nails to that list as well and the ogre like teeth and pointy ears. The only thing I find odd "or normal" about this picture is your thumb. It looks human, but it's got a nice effect to it. Good colours. It's like a bad day at work and you found this little guy trying to give you a nose job.

Knight: Die horrid nose from hell!

You: I... I... I will uh... drop you... (Menacing Laughter)

(drops knight)
(Knight dies)

You: (More Menacing Laughter)

(Your boss and everyone stares at you)

Nobody at work ever talks to you again. (No wait that's me.) Shocked

No offense. Embarassed

Very well done. Very Happy

Thanks for the comments!
Acidcrys: He suppose to be like a Giant of some sort. His face is slanted as he is looking at the Tailor out of curiosity. I willl see if I can fix the ear up a bit more.
Notto: Yeah the thumb does feel a little out of place, I will have to fix that. I really digged the play by play at the end there! Very Happy

Thanks again for the feedback!

The thumb just is too smooth - it has no phalanges(? I believe thats what theyre called) .. so creases may help?

and I didn't specify with the ear earlier.. I just think it needs to be darker shading or something.. not changed really.. Smile
