Is he a vampire? His eyes are a bit too high here. Hair is lovely as allways.
I can't portray my characters too for 7 years :_)

I understand what you mean about drawing our own OC... Sometimes I can't draw my Daniel the way I want, grr... and I draw him since my childhood! Of course he's a bit changed during all these years: I've his imagine in my head but can't draw him exactly the way I have in my mind... Sometimes I was satisfied but most of the times I'm not, I say 'it could have been better...' frustrating, I know...
Btw, I find your OC's eyes a bit too... 'dolly', they seem glass doll's eyes to me so his look is a bit too 'fixed' and a bit too big for a vampire; but it's only my opinion not a critique.

I love his lips especially. The purple tones in his hair are gorgeous. Skin technique is great!

the main goal in drawing for me was to be able to draw all of that beautiful people, that I see in my mind XD
and sometimes it works *_*

skin looks real *_* but I think, that chin is a bit heavy... well, maybe we just have different taste ^^

The same thing happens to em with the characters I care about the most, my fav ones, those of who I care too much. I still wonder if that's a matter of workshop or too much attachment, so it's better to not paint them than spoil the vision. Also once I succeed the image stays in my mind, no matter how wonky it becomes with time, all improvement must rely to that old piece or it's not that person. Plus the fact that the vision is changing all the time... Maybe it's something I'll never capture in a form satisfying to me, but will push me to evolve and improvement all the time. As your character does with you.

Coming back to your technique above - it's not that digital as you feel, the face looks good, not plastic at all - I find over digitalised pieces done with brushes plastic. Maybe his hair make that effect - they're less refined than the face. I see you wanted to show depth of field and it works but in this case the hair in front would be a bit more defined, while the back would get just a little bit of refinement, too. Or maybe I'm just hair freak Still I think this detail might cause to you the "digital" look. Also why not finalising the brushes work with hand painting in the end? I'm sure you did it, but if you miss the live hand drawing touch here you could always stress it more. I guess digital pieces become lifeless when they are polished too much, like a quick sketch on paper never would. I'm still trying to catch that bit of hand drawing chaos in my works since I don't want them too look plastic, too.

Cooooooooltraaaaane! Ever read/heard of Victor Hugo's Les Miserabes? Because I think Coltrane looks like the revolutionary student, Enjolras. They share lots of physical features...especially that deep gaze that bores itself into one's soul, hehehehe. <3

Ehhhh, I like how you did his hair, especially the left-hand side. Very realistic. The first portrait of Coltrane you did is a very far cry from this.

Oh kakka now I feel like making fanarts. D:
