lol well its all done now I see aaaaaaaalllllllllooooottttttttt of room for improvement but I'm glad I finally got through it I learned allot, (thanks inkhana 
) gained allot of practice, and came up with some of my own techniques so now I cant wait for my next one because I know it will be even better 
I like the way the armor came out; it has a nice, lightly hammered look to it which is cool. Overall, the color scheme is really nice too. I didn't expect he would be red-headed for some reason! he he
I couldnt find a color that worked well to shade them with 
and I couldnt stand the hair ethier 
but I will have to try that technique out sounds like it will help!
) I started out by modeling the object in Lightwave 3D. I then imported it into Bryce and textured it, added some lights, and added some more shapes to it once all of that is done.
)
I like how I got the light rays to fall on clouds head 
let me know what you think
) I just started to shade it but I want to go on to something else now lol (I'm on a drawing spree) let me know what you think
He has a really good face. Like the hat too... My suspicions were correct I needed to make the legs and the hands larger I don't normally draw big guys but I though I could use some practice I'm pretty happy on how the muscles came out though but it doesn't turn out very good in the scan I think I made it to light
)
talk about surprising! oh and I found a way to minimize my smudging most of it came form me brushing off my eraser crumbs (yes I have a rubber eraser but it just isn't as accurate as my stick eraser that leaves crumbs ) so I all do is grab a really big paintbrush the kind Crayola makes for kids (one of my little sisters 
) and brush off the crumbs so my hand doesn't smear my drawing!!!!

There are really only a couple/three things that strike me as off about the pic just from looking at the thumbnail. The first is the face shape. Although it's -almost- symmetrical, like I said above, take a look at the distance from the corner of each eye to the side of the face. On the left side, it's a little wider (and in my estimation, a little too wide) while the right looks good.
The third thing isn't really something that's wrong so much as a matter of preference, but I've noticed that eyes that have a smaller iris and pupil tend to have more expression. They're sometimes a little more difficult to make look focused, but they tend to be more intense. This is the reason why in anime, when characters get angry, their irises often shrink...it brings out aggression (and a lot of other emotions too) a lot better. This is as opposed to sadness, which is actually benefitted by a larger iris/pupil because you gotta figure out a place to put all those wiggly highlights! LOL!
Oh no where did his neck go now I'll have to go find it again! It never stays in place
