Ok something new again. Need yer opinions.
I'm trying to do a more realistic anatomically correct muscle guy. This is more of a "comic book" style project than the usual "cartoon" look.
Case in point: the eyes, mouth and neck muscles are a lot more realistic, after lots and lots of work.
Here's where the problem crops up. As I'm working on a pic, I lose (how to say it) the ability to look at it impartially, so I have to stop and come back in a few hours after my brain resets. Besides the nose, and the neck muscles, what on this face needs correcting? Or am I being too much of a perfectionist? Hmm.... ! Yeah I gotta study more muscle and facial anatomy.
All comments are welcome! Thanks!

And it's okay for you to demand more of yourself, that's how artists evolve :)
The ear is a little small. I suggest you make it a little bigger.
Other then those things I think it looks good. I hope I have helped.
The nose I'd say is the issue. The bridge looks too separate fron the nose itself.
Otherwise, there's nothing wrong. Just great! ^_^
The nose IS wayyy too bulbous, and the bridge can be carved down a lot. The ear is a wee bit too small, that is easy to correct. The veins.. well this is just a closeup detail of the entire figure, and his other veins are larger and more defined. The small veins are very small, and tend to blend with the skin more.
