Whoa, it's been a while. I just wrapped up the first week of school.
Anyway, this was inspred by a reading on the light/dark sides of the human psyche, the dark side being what we fear the most about ourselves. Just a quickie.

Wow, very effective!
I like how the blood contrasts against the black and white of the rest of the pic. Impression work for a "quickie"

Kinda looks slightly Yoji Shinkawa influenced- is it? Also reminds me of HellRaiser.. maybe since I was watching Hell Raiser 2 last night! I think the jaw looks a bit narrow and thing and the chin looks really little- the space between his nose and top lip shouldn't be bigger than his chin should it?

Jackel-- Thanks.I did this in Corel Pinter Classic, with a tablet.
Bomu--I'm a big fan of Shinkowa's art. You could say that this was inspired by his style, something that I'm been trying to acheive. As for the lips and chin, you're right. Idealy, it should be placed equidistant from the nose and chin. Although I'm not a big fan of ideal proportions, it makes the pic look more natural now that I've moved the lips up. As for the chin being too thin... I don't see it. I thought maybe you meant the jaw instead, so I made it more broad.
Thanks

hm I also think that his chin is too small. Because the space between his nose and mouth and the chin are the same (size wise) but the chin is often longer than this space(and it looks better when this is the case imo).
Other than this I like it especial the fluid line style is great.
