Its one kind of expression! Intimidading but well done. Eyes got my points!

The expression is troubling. I like the frown forehead and the mean eyes. Great skin texture too. I like the way you left some blue in the eyes.

Almost black and white, and the little colors left give the hole pictures a strong dramatic look. The man is afraid as we will be if we look too long at him! Very well done.

Bizarro! I like it! Bizarro, I like it!

Intense. Nice sharp details on the visage. The post-processing goes well with the expression. My first thought was "Big Brother is watching".

I like it - very detailed - the eyes are mesmerizing.. you can see every pore. Also it looks like you desaturated the photo and kept the eyes with more colour. He looks a little dirty though..

I like the eyes. So expressive. Is it fear or anger in it? Interesting.
