Personal Work: Horned guy-thing

Just thought that I would share a little non-homework piece of work. I just started doodling some head designs of some kind of horned creature liked one and thought that I would try and do something more substantial with it.

Not a happy looking chap is he...

Everything but the face is relatively under worked but the idea was to draw the eye to the centre where, lo and behold, the face is.

I also added an overlay layer to the picture and threw in some purple-ish (maybe?) tones just to be able to better envision the colour of the creature's skin.

I could have done more with the horns and hair, but I am happy the contrast that they bring to the better rendered face.

   That's all really, just a quick painted piece that I was quite happy with (sometime I just try to paint something and it all goes downhill from there so I think I got quite lucky with this one).
