Trying out a new style. I'm pretty happy with how it came out for the most part. It was really difficult for me as I normally like to put a bit more detail in pieces. It took a bit of trial and error to figure out what to leave out. New image added!

Not familiar with your usual style, but I like this one! I think the level of detail you've gone with suits the precise and clean lines and shadows well.

Plus the drawing itself is so skillful. O:
Lovely pin-up!

It looks pretty good too far, but I only see a few things wrong with it.

The neck looks a bit too thick, and also, you gave him curves. Men don't have curves, and I'm presuming you're not trying to draw a bishounen.

Actually, this man does have curves where is love handles are.

XD You know, I've been meaning to find out for a LONG time. What the hell are love handles!?

Love handles are typically fat along the side of someone right above where your pantline is.
Lovehandles

I like this, though.
The neck is a bit thick, and the nipples are a little awkward ( Maybe lopsided?). I agree that he is a tad too curvy, though.
Other than that, I'm digging the smoothness of it. Reminds me of a vector.

@ Shad - xD Thanks.

New image added. Happy pride, everyone! n_n

Alright, witht he new one~
The main three things I notice is his face, his bust, and his shoulders.

His head is fairly good, however I think that his face is too large for the rest of his head. If you make the nose a tad bit smaller, that might look better. Not even making it smaller, but just have the bridge start slightly slightly lower.
The eye could also be lengthened and moved closer to the edge of the face. Don't worry, I have this problem, too -- It's really a lot closer to the 'edge' than most people think.

The jaw line is a little awkward. Remember that the end of your jaw, when it curves up -- that basically connects to your ear. So, you can't have it going past the ear like you have here.

The neck seems a bit...straight? Remember that the next connects to the jaw -- so the skin there will curve down into the neck. Also -- Adam's apples. Your first pin-up it was okay, because you could see a very faint one in your shading. But from the side, you can really see it sticking out. And since it's rather high up, you could see it here in this picture, too.

The shoulders are a tad too long? Remember they would foreshorten a smidgen because one is getting farther away.

The body is where you can really see that you're more used to the female body.
He's still really curvy. The dip in the back, and the really thin waist is what makes this. Think of men more as rectangles, and women as hourglasses.
Just smooth out the back a bit and it'll look much more manly.
Also, in the back, make sure you connect the spin lines. You either had it curve way too much for his pose, or they were just disconnected.

The font, you wouldn't be able to see his pecs. You can maybe see that much with a woman because of the breasts, but with him turning like that, and how close to the body his pecs would be( He's not the most muscular) you wouldn't be able to see them at this angle. If you can see his back, you shouldn't be able to see parts of his front like that.


The arms are pretty good, but still have a bit of problems;
The farther away arm is too short -- the elbow comes up too high, and makes it look a tad awkward.
The closer arm is good for length. The elbow shading makes it look more like it was indenting, though. Not sticking out. Remember that the bone where the elbow bit sticks out is close to circular. Shade it like it was sticking out by shading around the edges.
To make it connect to the body in the back better, have it connect more to the shoulder muscle back there. Have it curve in just a tad.
Finally, the wrist tappers too much. Just thickening that up a little will help.

Um, another thing on the arm. The tattoo. It's a bit...flat? It doesn't fit with how the arm would curve -- think of a label on a can.


The shading is a bit light, and doesn't seem as good as the first picture. You're missing a lot where the muscles would be, and typical places.
You have to set shadows in if things are over others -- remember where your light source is.
Here, I just did it over your body here

Now, I absolutely love your nice clean style. It gives almost a vector feel to it. It's a simplistic realism like style, and it's not often found here on the Internet forums. It's a nice gem~
You put colors together very nicely, and you're willing to go into more difficult poses than a lot of people.
Keep working at it, I'd love to see more in this style~!

Awesome! Thank you n_n It's always so hard to get good critiques D:

Two words...

hubba hubba!
