I'm simply asking him to explain his comments further so I have something to improve with.

Okay The hair has like some spikyness that annoys me, and the shadows under the arm are light so I can't see it very well, and the pants have to munch shading its sort of too dark if you ask me

Thank you, that's what I needed.
I've tidied the hair up a bit and it's looking more like the picture.
I'm going to experiment with the jacket tones but I think I'll leave the pants as they are they have a bit of looseness to them so that's a reason for some extra shading.

I like it. Changing the eyes is something you don't see alot of on character alterations. I really like the eyes on this one and yes, it would look like he's from an asian background. About the hair, I have played LA and I own the game and to me, as a fan, the hair looks fine. The jacket is very well done if a little too straight. Maybe some light shading for creases? It's just a suggestion. I like the way you made the black jeans(?) look baggier than normal jeans. The shoes are fine but a bit plain. I do understand that is how they look in the game but even just changing the colour of the laces would help (from a pixel artists point of view).

9/10 +Rep

Thanks for that comment, precise and to the point.
I've decided to 'comb' the hair a little. I agree with your comments about the jacket's creases. I might try them. And with the shoes, when I was recolouring them black I was thinking "Hmm maybe I should at least do some shading on these if not use a different shoe"
+rep for you and Demynx

Looks a little like him but not too much but I think the background is fine. :rolleyes:

Good attempt anyway.

Ok, I have changed the shoes slightly, tamed the hair so it's just smooth except for the fringe and I have changed the shading colours on the jacket.

Its too dark... doesnt he wear any other costume during the game you could do?? Hes got black hair, tanned skin, black jacket, black trousers, black shoes, hes on a grey base with a dark red wall...

[Browney]

Doesnt he wear any other costume during the game you could do?

Rather than draw him in his underwear, he decided to draw him the way most would recognise him. And about the dark coloured clothes, it's supposed to be dark. He's one of those "renegade cops on the edge" type things.
