SciFi and Fantasy Art: In a Knot

The celtic knot is a clipart that I manipulated so I cannot take full credit for that but the man is one of my own...getting him in front of the knot was the hardest part.

I love celtic knots and anything celtic, the character has a ver life like expression, his face and eyes are very well done.
I am amazed he looks so life like as he was a mere doodle...thank you!

I like the hair as well. I think you've done an excellent job on the piece. Very unique....he looks very angsty. The only recommendation that I have is that you work on the sizing of the celtic knot. The pixels are a bit too visible in it. No big deal, though. Great work!

The picture isn't bad. He seems to have a bit of a weak chin, and I think a little definition would go a long way. BTW if you ever want to learn to do knotwork yourself you should check out a book called "Celtic Knotwork" by Iain Bain (ISBN 0-8069-8638-7) It's really helpful . . . though the process is pretty time consuming.

Strong image... I love the way you've drawn the guy; the hair, his beard, his eyes, the muscles. You did a great job setting him off from the background, though I do think you might have overdone the outlining a little: the lines defining his body/profile are much darker and sharper than all the others and makes him look less realistic than it would have otherwise. Other than that, good job!

does he have a beard or is that shading i can't seem to tell the difference. HIs right arm seems to be a bit out of place too. nice colouring though... you scaned celtic design needs allot of work it looks messy

I love this guy! Having Irish ancestry and green eyes myself, it reminds me a bit of ME...(at age 25 1 You have beautifully captured the Celtic spirit. Like the others, I could quibble over the details, but you've captured the essence of the Celtic Archetype: Red hair, green eyes, warrior spirit, and the Celtic Knot representing the artistic side of a warrior people.
