Name : Colonel
Obv this is a Man, he is around 35 years old.
He is the Chef of the Military operation
Source : my own manga
Thanks for any Tips
What's goin' on there ? ..with his eyepatch.
well he have an eyepatch cause he got shot in the face by a powerfull gun :P like a Deagle --- this man is strong lol
His face is all completely deformed. His right eye is on the side of his face and I don't even know what's going on with this mouth.
I think he's talking about the straps. The way they're drawn makes the perspective and anatomy of the drawing look odd. They run over ridges and valleys on his face that shouldn't be there, and they're
awkwardly foreshortened. I myself am not very skilled with drawing faces and eyepatches, so all I can say is to practice drawing real faces before you restrict yourself to manga.
You copycat! You just photoshopped an eyepatch on a picture of Sylvester Stallone!

You're only supposed to post your own work.
Unless hes supposed to be deformed, I would say work on the lips and jaw structure.
And give him a nose.
lol

lol ill ask him to take more time working on the face he drew me that under 15 minutes for a simple preview of the character
3 hours? Really?
The eyepatch isn't in the right place in relation to the other eye, the straps are odd and unnatural looking, and the nose just looks like it had a piece cut off or something.
And the lips just have a weird perspective.
I don't know how old are your firend, OP, but it looks pretty bad, especially in terms of human anatomy
Tell him he should practise from these books/photo references/tutorials:

You can probably see that there's something wrong.
Also his nose is pointing so far up that it just looks like the nasal bone of the skull, making it look like someone just chopped his nose clean off. Or he was born without one.

XD everyone is telling that my friend did a bad job .. yes he did, we all know that ..
but my real question was .. did i colored it well. r my color job is bad. If its bad, what do i have to practice to make it better
Is it bad that I am laughing hysterically at this thread? I think you should merge into the coulour more gradually, instead of switching from light to dark so suddenly. Also ditch the watermark, no one is going to steal the work, I mean why would they when "my friend did a bad job"
This is the stuff of nightmares
There are two shades and of the same colour for skin and another colour for hair and all you did was paintbucket half of his face.
You also left the hatching in. Why would you do that if you're going to colour the drawing?
If your friend is going to keep drawing faces like that the colouring is the least of your worries.
I'm not a very knowledgeable person when it comes to colour but I suppose you can try using more colours, smoother transitions and higher contrast.
