This is a really great piece <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>
Vision ~ The detail is outstanding, as is the shading. I love the way you've coloured the eyes and tie; they really pop out of the b/w background. The glasses are extrodinary! I don't know how you got the reflection in the lenses to look so realistic, but you did a great job. The fur itself is awesome, I love how you didn't sketch it in just one direction, which gives it the matted effect that goats have. As someone mentioned in the comments, the ears looks great too! The highlighting is as equally amazing as the shading, and I can see you haven't done it randomly; you've worked out where the light was striking the object and how the shadows would take place.
Originality ~ I gave you full stars for this! I love how you've drawn him as you've imagined from the book, as opposed to how he looks in the theatre production. Really great.
Technique: I can't really fault the technique either! There's nothing better than a traditional piece of work done right, with real detail and concentration.
Impact ~ As soon as I saw it, I just had to write a critique. I'm a fan of Wicked myself, and I really believe this is an excellect take on Dr Dillamond's character. It's so refreshing and eye popping, I might just have to add it to my favourites <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="387" title=";) (Wink)"/>
Amazing piece! Well done.
