Loverly!

Please don't scrap it!

Agreed :3

-_-

And you want to scrap it, heh. I'm sure you see the flaws in it, but from my end, it's fantastic.

Lighing and form look good.

I can't believe you'd consider this scrap material.

I think this image looks fine in its progress stage in which you're still establishing the values but finished creating the subject of the image.
You can try to expand the darker values around the shoulders to the pectorals as well as pushing out the general form of the face with dynamic value changes.
I do really like the secondary blue gray light that is coming from above and having it more prevalent on his face or even the orange-red glow would look really cool but if you use the red light then the face might have to be angled away or towards the audience in order for the face to be hit by the light.

Your color coordination is pretty dope as well as your texture placements. Props yo~

thank you for your suggestions.

I was planing for something grander, but soon find I fucked up the initial stages. So I cropped the part that doesn't look like poop. I'm going to try what I planed again in the near future.

That's good. I would delete an image if I didn't find it reaching its potential as well. Good luck =]

nice shading! o.o
