This dude is probably one of my favorite villains ever.. imo something is off about him though.. Maybe his posture but everything else looks dope..

Or maybe he just looks to much like a cartoon character to me..

And the back ground looks a little more realistic than he does..

Just trying something different. The whole thing was meant to look realistic...not like a cartoon or anything...and the background was meant to have more of a black/white look while he is fully colored. I agree about the posture seeming off. He's standing on a rock on the beach, but I suppose that's hard to see with his feet being hidden by the fractal light. Like I said...just trying something different. Thanks for the feed though.

i see, hmm
if your trying to go for realistic then try blending adjustments on top of the whole thing, you can keep his red while having a b/W bg, i'd personally lost the frac tho cause its pretty distracting and does the opposite of what your trying to do, if your loking for a realistic blur tho Motion Blur is the way to go

did you use layer adjustments as well? cause thats the only way i can suggest using G-maps
Softlight for depth (normally the Orange/violet 20-60 Opacity)
and Luminosity for the B/W gmap (100% Opacity) afterwards

I can't remember all what I did to this one, but I usually use at least 4 layer adjustments: two B/w gradients set to luminace, vibrance and a photo filter (not in that particular order)...and that's before I go into Topaz or whatever other filter I'm going to use.
