trying some new shading/pixeling techniques and light source "manipulation"

I don't like the skin tone on his pants...

Whatever. His (bigger person) elbow seems to be too round, somehow. Also, something bugs me about the left side (our left) of his visible upper arm. His right hand looks like an undefinable mess to me.

I guess that red scribbly stuff symbolizes a red light source?

I don't know... but the bigger person's left arm seems misplaced, and his face is messy. Nice coloring there.

The flesh is too pink, and the pink outlining on the jeans is ugly. The shading looks ok, but you need a different palette...

@Previous: The red scribbles are the general area where I'll be spriting a crowd. However, there's supposed to be two light sources; one that goes in the general direction of the crowd, and another on the other side, which is meant to be a bright red light. The color tints is meant to signify both the light source and the intensity of the area.

@Gorsal: I'll try to clean up the face and the elbow then. Thanks.

@Groove: See above comments.

The jeans look like they could use some extra detail there.. Plus, like Grooveman said, a possible diffrent pallete would be possible.

But this is a possible experiemental WIP, not going against that.
