Guan Yu

I lost count on the number of hrs I spent on this one. Spent way too much time on this, to the point where it's no longer enjoyable working on it anymore. So when I thought the character was already detailed enough, I quickly slapped in a background and call it done. Finishing it for the sake of finishing it. Lots of things I don't like about it, the boring composition, boring pose, and of course the sloppy background And one of my colleague pointed out, that he is holding his big sword (I don't know it's called in english) too near the head. It was so obvious... but it will have to do, cus I'm not going back to it anymore. I started focusing on the details on him too early I guess. By the way, he is Guan Yu (关羽) of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. On to the next!
