this is hardly a sketch, and you should link the tutorial! IMHO

It's a very interesting effect, but it's not a sketch as the contest describes...At best, it is a layer mask scribble, so is Off Topic for this contest.
The background is okay, since the body would be your main focal point, but the scribble itself is unimpressive, since there is no direction or emphasis with the technique, just an "any direction" bunch of marks.

I was thinking about the effect obtained if you put a piece of paper over a coin, and "scrible" over it with a pencil...but in my picture, i kept the colors ...

outa the box.. I like it good luck author (Looks like Freddy)

Thanks Drivenslush, finnaly, someone who appreciate, not criticize.

I like the effect as well.. I got what your concept was, I played with that concept a lot when I was a kid... let mods decide about it being on theme or not.. but your effect, I'm definitely going to try for my FB profile pic..

This is cool, good luck Author

Thanks iquraishi and cabldawg71 !!

I like the effect too but it's not a sketch because the face is too visible as a photography. Good luck author.

Thanks a lot...now i can wait for mod to remove my work... it's a sketch, a new type of sketch, invented by ME!
