Evocative is what I'm going for. Thanking my friend Peter Levius at 3d.sk for the original image. There is beauty, strength and sadness in this mans eyes. IIt's about opportunity, war and oil. And, it's hard to find a gallery here for this kind of image. This image is dedicated to my friend Dunlap Scott who indeed saw with clear eyes and a big heart.

Recognized the DigitalFX onion in the thumbnail. After a closer look at full screen though, this is miles away from your wolves piece. Excellent work again and a powerful message, at least as I interpret it~

Powerful image. Spent 5 years in Africa and saw many looks like this. Just beyond the sadness lies man's inhumanity to man.

Guys, I really appreciate your compliments. I was so taken by the original photograph. It inspired me to create this persona. The image was sent to me by a friend, Peter in Sweeden who runs a special website for 3D artists. He has the most amazing body reference collection of images, some free and most require membership. Peter supplied images for my Virtual Humans book.

This is the image that I have tenderness for. There are many things that I could comment on, but i would go on forever . The way that you have cropped the head, but have followed the cheek line softens it but still leaves it hard. Visit My Gallery

There is nothing more expressive then a face, whether it is people or animals...the eyes say it all....and the rest exemplifies that. This man has every emotion rolled into one. The structure of his face...and the colour...the blending of that with your background...its all just simply fantastic. Then the line "I do see with clear eyes" make a statement of impact and yet tenderness...A most wonderful creation Peter.

I really like this. It seems to be part portrait and part profile. You really gave it a cool twist with all the grafiti styling. I give this one very high marks.

"Love starts at home: family first then the indivdual then your town. its easy to love people far away,but it is not always easy those right next to us. I do not agree with the big way of doing things. Love needs to start with an individual." -Mother Teresa ( But in my opinion whever there is world crisis it is wise to give.)
