It's not that "great" but i think it's good enough considering this is my first time to do it.







What do you guys think? I know I should put more pics but I'm not done with it yet

Any comments would be appreciated.

Not bad for a first effort. If you're just starting out, I wouldn't bother too much with "effects" like the green glow around the eyes. Concentrate on the basics of foundation, highlights and/or shading.

Looks good for a firts try,but I agree with Flash don't bother about complicated techniques while you are just starting out first get the basics down.

Is there a tutorial somewhere on that green glow?

yes here. Thraka green wash(or green ink) apply to the eye area, and spread it above and below the eyes)

When i see the glow around the eyes i can't help but think, how does the glow go from the recess to out and up a helmet. the helmet has a very prominent brow line and i don't think it would work.(not criticizing you, just an observation)

For your first attempt great job, you have alot of promise.

okay so i kinda took off the glow now and I'll update you guys soon.

@fire4effekt

that makes sense lol. So I guess i'll just glow on the bottom of the eye. For now I'll just stick with the basics :]

Don't let me deter you , if you want glowing eyes have em! Make his rebreather glow if you want its your model. My comment was not at you, yours just happens to have that effect i was thinking about today. I see it all the time. Still great job though!
