"Passing the point of Remission" Work-in-progress
<center>**Hello Steemit!**</center>

The last days were really epic! I've managed to fix my second screen *Again*, to get some levels on my workflow, to learn new technique about texturing and facturing. Gaining more confidence to use colors... My hands are on fire, i've been drawing for 53 hours the last 4 days. My wrists hurt like hell, i'm smoking more than ever before but.. But check this out

For the most part, i don't notice progress until I compare my recent works with older ones. but this time i felt the difference. 
At the moment I'm designing the cigarette. Earlier this year @lazyad showed me cool technique about building your composition and detail in such way that the eye won't get tired of all the stuff on the painting. The idea is that you have tp place your stuff like a chessboard, if you have heavy detailed chunk of your canvas, the thing next to it should be simpler, and the thing after that can be detailed too, the direction of the details is very important, for example on this piece I'm using radial composition about the detail, but at the same time crossing it with arrow like objects to lead the eye, it's more natural and easy for the viewer to navigate through the canvas and absorb your message in his own way.

*There is a lot more to be fixed- light source, skin textures, the beard feels kind of strange... i have more work to do... I'm getting back to it, just wanted to show you mates what i'm working on when i'm not working on the "Nataly" - [behind the mask](https://steemit.com/art/@svdsdragunov/behind-the-mask)

Thank you mate! I grew up with movies that the protagonist or the hero is smoking, and it left in me this cliche about badass guys that smoke and get everything done. and it also i think it looks cool xD cool looking cancer stick xDDD

Helped me I am not sure but I found interesting the thing about the "radial composition about the detail, but at the same time crossing it with arrow like objects to lead the eye... ". Altough as it is not finished yet it's still difficult to see till the end of your idea. But by arrow you mean these two rods, right?

Thanks mate! Oh yeah, i just remembered what my teacher used to say about skin under fur there is always a bit greenish. I have the geeling that i overdid the beard. but i will fix it.. maybe :D. About the attention, Photoshop launches when i turn on my pc, this way i don't see games, facebook or anything. :D it reminds me what i have to do and why :D also having a note that i have to finish something really helps  :)
