Besole and his tree.

Turning on 'Roast Me' for this one because I can see it's full of problems but I don't know what to do about them. I like the hair, I guess, but that's about it. FIRE AWAY!

Closeups: Face and Tree

Edit to actually put it in 'roast me' because I forgot after saying that. I fail. @@

Attached a red line- essentially, it needs more lighting effects cause the globe is bright, but noting is contrasting to suit, and the guy's eyes are wide apart. The rest of my thoughts are on the crit

What adorable idea! I like the over all image! But what i suggest is trying to us some texture on the machinery thing to make them a touch more real!

This drawing is going to be awesome when it's done.
I agree with DragonImp's comments. The values are too close and everything is kind of running together. The pocket on the side of his jacket looks really good and has lots of dimension. But the front of his body where his sweater shows looks rather flat.
Also his eyes may be too far apart. Try doing a horizontal flip on the canvas and that should help you see the errors better.

Wow - that's an impressive painting . The only thing I might suggest is stronger contrast. Right now everything sort of fades together. Like his hand, which is supposed to be in the viewer's face, gets pushed back because it's the same tone as both his shirt and the background. Right now the only thing that really stands out is the globe.

But otherwise I really like this. The mechanical creatures especially.
