Umm...the technique is nice, but...where's his shoulders? Or does the story involve his head on a pole?

I really like how the shadows on the skin are done, and the detail of the hair. I'm not quite sure they go together, though, since the skin's shading is so much softer and less defined, as if it's in a softer light than his head. Lastly, the face is a bit odd, with the right eye looking toward the viewer while the left eye (and the rest of the face) looks away. Actually, I'm not sure where the left eye is supposed to be looking. The mouth is well-shaped but not dark enough to be very visible with the shading around it, and it doesn't quite match the curve of the right side of the face.

Very good with the hair! I'm terrible drawing hair. I don't know what reference you got it from, but the right side of his face (our left) looks a bit flat to me. I'm kind of wondering about the head-on-a-pole thing, myself.

But it's good. Especially the hair. I envy it. :D

Nice coloring.

...Though I have to wonder. His eyes don't really seem to glow with MAKO like they should...

That's not really a spoiler. I'm pretty sure it says that his eyes glow with MAKO energy within the first 5 minutes of the game.

I bet they're still not as creepy as Hester Prynne's...

Her eyes are always like that, too. *shudder*

Eh, I'm mainly joking. It's been so long I don't remember much at all of the few hours I played, and I'm pretty sure the first five minutes involved mainly cursing at the idiot designers who threw a player into a time-based battle as practically the first thing after gaining control.

Heh heh.

Yeah, Mako's not a spoiler.

First time ya see Aerith, she points it out.

"Your eyes glow just like Zack's." Etc.

It's been about seven years since I last played, so I don't really have a clue about "Zack", "Mako", "Aeris"...XD

No one liked my Hester Prynne joke? XD
