Originally rendered this setup in Poser and then messed around with it in Photoshop. Was a nice image, but then I wanted to test out this tutorial I had found to do a comic art effect. Comments?

Tutorial can be found here:

Wow. I love the effects (and the pose and the guy). Really nice job.

Awesome tutorial, thanks for the link. The image is hilarious. My fave thing to do is apply sleazy vicki poses to the freak - makes you realize how ridiculous they are ;-)

Wasn't intended to be funny. Glad you gotta chuckle anyways. Too each his own I guess.

Oh, I didn't mean to insult you. I am not into boys, so any "sexy" male image is gonna make me chuckle. I think it's a great image, and IMHO you did a better job making it "comic-esque" than the tutorial, even.

Great work!

And thanks for the link.

I agree with sflayer in one respect - you have improved on the effect in the tutorial.

Keep up the good work :-)

Great figure and pose. TERRIFIC line work but the color has that weird translucent quality that Photoshop tricks can give. I would float up the blacks to a new layer and remove them from the color layer then run the Cut Out filter on the colors and then paint bucket to "de-anti-alias" then slight blur to "re-antialias" or maybe distort anotropic or whatever the heck that filter is called that smoothes things out. Maybe you should try linniar gradiantiants into selections for the color but really I think they just have that filter look and you shouls eith paint them in with a hardbrush or make straightline selections and fill them. Looke realy good though but you were asking for advise to be even better :)
