This is a new style I was trying out... It came out pretty well I think.
I started making this late january/early february, And I stopped for a very long time. I only had like... 30%-40% done. So today I decided to finish it.
It took about... 4 hours today, so all in all it was probably around 6-7 hours.
There are 150+ layers... and yeah... Tell me what you think:


Heres the original:

I love the grey-tone, and how you have a vibrant splash of blue for the eyes. The detail and shading is wonderful. Great job!

i think you have too much going on in the cheeks and forehead. simplify it more. the new trend of vexels are getting more real and real by the second. it looks amazing compared to the original i think you should smoothen it out more. good job !

Dude this is awesome!!!!
Nice job on the hairline, it doesn't look fake.
I really like this style.
The hands look amazing...
I love male vexels, I get tired of seeing beautiful models and celebrities all the time.
:) Wonderful job!
