very very good works on details

new to it eh? damn neat job, very detailed!

great work, however to me the head is slightly out of angle. its like he's not facing the right direction in coordance to his body. or maybe you just placed it a little more to his left side?

great job!
pretty dangerous axe.

Thanks for the great feedback guys, very encouraging! I am also going to be entering this painting into Exotique (ballistic publishing) and maybe I'll have time to do another one before the call for entries deadline; same style similar theme, then I'll be able to enter them as a pair.

Thanks again for the kind words and votes.

I havn't been on this site for months. Folks have got stingy with the crits and votes its seems. I think this painting is rad and deserves three times the score. the detail in the hands with the blood vessels and all is impressive. 8/8

Your attention to detail is overwelming. in a very very positive way... +8 keep this up.

great subject!
I clicked the link here before I saw the thumbnail; Vikings are awesome!!

Wow great work for one of your first digital paintings! I doubt i could do as well for a first attempt at it. Good details & looks quite believable, nicely done. I particularily like how you have added that metal sheen like reflection on his weaponry, adds some nice depth! I also love the addition of the snow, a nice touch!

Keep it coming!

great detail and character
