Hey guys and girls. Been swamped with work and having a hard time keep up with personal stuff, so I wanted to put off critiquing your stuffs until I finished these two pieces I'm currently working on. If all goes well I'll post the second by Sunday, and then the crits will follow.
So, just one piece today, but two variations. I can't decide if I want to leave the background just white or not. All opinions and critiques would be *greatly* appreciated.
Ciao homies.
*EDIT*
After posting these and looking at them, the plain white background really does look better. Maybe I'll try something else, or just leave it white. Also, the other piece I'm working on is taking longer than I thought and I'm going to need to do some studying/referencing to finish it, so... Just this one post for this weekend, maybe two more pieces next weekend. I'll try to get around to critting everyone elses stuff now.
