What do you guys think of the following piece I did? It was done entirely by hand on Photoshop CS2 with a mouse only using the airbrush tool.

I'm thinking of opening a shop soon with similar pieces I would do requiring reference pictures. So what would you price this at?

These pieces take me several hours to do.

Here's another example I have I would love opinions on. It's more close to the size and quality I would use in the shop.

I really like the car, though some of the parts seem quite uneven...as for the portrait, I think it looks too blurry, but it's a really good start^^. especially with a mouse xD

Heheh thanks. ^_^;; Yeah I have to smooth out some areas and be more careful with that. The portrait was kinda tricky since the reference picture I had itself was blurry which made the armor and skin tone rather hard and I have a hard time knowing what to do with hair and feathers when comes to using the airbrush on Photoshop.

I'm really tempted to open a shop, but I have no idea what to price these at. o.o;;

The car is awesome!!!
The background is kinda blurry tho
I'd give it a 9/10
The person..I guess it's harder to do
overall is 8/10 *nods*

Thank you. :3
The background on the car is supposed to be blurry by the way. xD

Nice work on the face and hair, try and put a bit more effort into the armor though, maybe make it a bit shineyer(sp?). Sorry, I suck at spelling XD

The face looks great. The armor and hair could use a little refining.
