2nd one is best

best depth out of the three

i dont like how its over contrasted but i can see why its been done

flow is good but a little boring

bottom left of the focal little shiny circle is distracting

add text you gay just do a spacey sans serif font clipping masked it'll look nice

why is there no light on his right shoulder (our right)

 

IKR about depth of two, it's since red midtones replaced with blue.

Agree with flow thing.

Not agree with spaced sans serif font, it'll probably just look like a high beginner trying to act like it's text on photography.

that little distracting circle is his ear, for anatomical reasons it's a locked layer.

 

ffs dani text is good at least try it out you gaylord

and i know you know that text can look peng if its done properly

 

There's a great sense of direction with the contrast, but the object should receive more than its surroundings due to its nature as the focal point of the piece. The abstract render used is great, although it has always confused me when they are mostly applied for a Color/Linear Dodge blend with the image. On the left side, whether it was your decision to leave it rather barren or not, it still seems bleak and untouched as opposed to the right.

Signatures haven't always been something I've found interest in because of their minute effects and small canvas size, but that is saying a lot if I'm commenting on someone's signature. It tells me that the artist has payed attention to the meticulous parts and are fastidious when it comes to signatures which is a very good quality in a person. In the end, I believe I've always looked at you as one of the artist here concerned with the finer details and you've definitely encompass it in your work.

 

Many thanks, the left side is barren and frankly, more time should've been spent on it as a whole - the composition is boring, the colours are overly vibrant and do not emphasise the focal, rather detract from it, and there are mistakes with the stock, though the abstract renders (actually stocks) are either on lightening blend modes to get the black background away, rather than select them through channels, which in my opinion takes longer.

It's nice seeing in depth criticism in this community, and I'm sure you'll be a well known face here in no time, welcome here buddy

 

i like them all but the black and white one really appeals to me, idk what it is. I guess its the simplicity of it The thing i like about the first pic is you're right away attracted to the person's face. you do not even notice the background right away(how it went for me) the 2nd picture is my favorite for some reason I really like the color scheme you chose and you blended it perfectly

9.5/10
