Well I thought he'd be the hardest but he wasn't too bad. This time I actually used reference because I couldn't get his hair and costume looking right without it. Enjoy!

There's something strange about this... something about this picture isn't quite right, but I can't tell what. It's on-model, accurate, and awesome-looking. I can't tell what, but there's something off...

Perhaps your eyes need checking. It looks great at this end. :)

Yep, looks fine to me.  Perhaps it's just the simpsonization that's throwing you?
Nice to see you back Morpheus.
There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning....
And that, I think, was the handle - that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting - on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave....
So now, less than five years later, you can go up on a steep hill in Las Vegas and look West, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark - that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

Ah-ha! Now I know what wasannoying me! The face looks a bit thin, IMO. But that's just my opinion. Other than that, this looks awesome.

Mmm... deadly....

Nice pose with a very large stabbing weapon. All good!
The colouring particularly strikes me. I guess no program in the world is idiot proof, and I simply cant make things look like that. I'm almost sure its somthing to do with layers because its the one thing I avoid using... too complicated.

Anyway, back on topic... you've drawn it very well, the lines are clean, the colouring is smooth and textured.
Cant complain :)

If I push myself, then I could probably add that this would look better with a background... but I'm not going to delve into the aspects of somthing like that. Its just an all around good picture :)
