>>289762The composition is horrendously busy, there is no value separation between any of the foreground or background elements, portions of the image are stupidly sloppy compared to the rest (brick wall) and regardless of the use of separate references there are numerous proportion, value, color and form errors and issues. Please please do not take random references and glue them together in an abominable and childish way ever again. If you do, at least give them a decent composition instead of randomly placing them everywhere like a splattering of clown semen.
>>289763This is more acceptable than the first. Despite the very boring central composition and flow, the elements read much better. It still suffers from much of the proportion and anatomy issues discussed w/ the first piece. A more intelligent management of negative and positive space would really make this pop but as-is all the values blend together into a big splotch of gray and black.
All in all, these are fairly amateurish and reek of teenager.
