I've been going around as a writer, but started getting drawn into Concept Art and 3D modeling. I'm currently finishing my studies as a 3D artist and will then be let loose on the world. Beware!
This is the version I call final. I don't know. I feel I could get back into retouching it to bring out light and shadow some more. Another day, perhaps :)
You can always go back and tweak it some more, but will you ever be satisfied?
I found that starting a new artwork allows me to not make the same mistakes instead of trying to hide all the last ones.
I really like it. Great tones, color. Your shading is brilliant
