It's very much like you said, sketchy. But it fits, the whole picture looks like it's the base for something better that just never got done. Certain things are off, like his left eye being noticeably smaller then the other, the bridge of his nose looking very odd, but it seems to go with the style of the picture.

Unfortunately I can't say it's very good, but it's very well done stylistically.

Interesting, very well drawn, I didn't notice those mistakes pointed out above, until they were pointed out.
It has a slight feminine look to me, despite the lack of hair.
But it flows, all the colours with the picture, just look right.

Well done, keep it up :)

I really like your character style, but I'd love to see you draw the same guy from multiple angles. I'm really curious how far this guy's nose sticks out, how deeply set his eyes are, etc.

Expand on this guy. He's got potential.

I didn't notice the mistakes posted above until Godly pointed them out D:
I did notice however that the eyes seemed to be too high (if you were aiming for the human look that is). I imagine it was due to the lack of hair that they seem on place but really might not be (once again if you were aiming for the human look)

here is the pic with just that and a hair line and some "hair" added.

Great pic I assume you used a Tablet ;)

Holy shit you've scarred me for life. That looks so realistic it's unbelievable. Nice use of colours, too.

You amaze me, Alex guy. I love how his ears are different, and the red in his eyes.

But theres nothing wrong with a little difference, because really, in real life, things that are paired in/on(?) a human body are usually different from each other. The goes for eyes, ears, legs, hands etc.

Trent Reznor like nose. As I said before, it's awesome. But the eyes are different sizes. O:

True, but only trent can make a crooked nose look sexy.

Anyway, I like the red in his eyes. And I don't really think it matters that some things have uneven sizes, it looks good. Good job :)

His eyes remind me of the emperor from StarWars.


It's really well done though.

Is it just me, or does it look like he has a pair of testicles for a chin?

The jaw line is creeping my out abit but its pretty cool to look at. Make him from a different angle so some of some of the features can be seen like eye depth and nose length. Pretty sweet though.

The background really does the trick making it look creepy...also, really good job on the eyebrows. Most people can't draw them worth a shit.
