Futuristic, detective in a car something

[Jayel]

Partially inspired by Blade Runner.
C&C much appreciated.

Does he have a neck, he kinda looks like he is shrugging but holding his shoulders up at this head, maybe.

[Jayel]

He's sort of slouching in his chair with his head leaning forward.Ã,  that's why he doesn't seem to have a neck.  (it's a pose you can try in your chair, if you'd like)

But if that's not obvious to you, then I've failed as an artist.

Fantastic!

I could totally tell he was slouching ... I get the impression he's anticipating something.  Like he's expecting something to happen at any second.  (Failing that ... I get the impression that he's bored.)

It also reminds me of Brad Pitt in Seven (great movie).

This style reminds me a little of a graphic novel I had when I was a kid 'Wolverine & Havok' I think it was called.

As you mention it, i do now see more of a slouch that i saw earlier this morning, and if you are failing as an artist, then what the hell am i?

Some modifications:

About 130 kb

(i) Changed the reflections in the window which didn t seem to correspond to the monitors (the left monitors were pretty much pure white while the reflections were darker green).

(ii) Changed his headshape. It had a midget sort of head shape, with the forehead and jaw sticking out.

(iii) Changed the nose which seemed a bit odd (I ve seen noses shaped kind of like that before but it still seemed unnatural).

(iv) Extended the eyebrow which ended a bit short. Also made a small highlight on the lower eyelid.

(v) Altered the arm. My first impression was also that he seemed very tense even though I ve seen the pose in relaxed situations before.

All in all it looks ridiculously good though. Might as well have been a photo that had gone through a couple of filters.

Bother versions are very nice, but I personally find that the face it a bit too young-looking. It may just be me, though.

Loominous: All valid edits.  Thanks!

heh, that is just awsome!
I think it's perfect. But, I'm not a very good critic.
