Well, I'm happy with this. 'Bout 5 hours work, and about 100 layers... For you Zell Denver! :P

Has a sort of 'House' look about him...
The construction is utterly perfect. The hair is very analogous (as hair should be). [Reader's note: I just Googled Hugh Laurie LOL].

OK, so it is House. The impression I get now (knowing who he is), he's just done a 24hour shift and come straight from stabilizing a code blue on the 6th floor. He is stressed and more to the point low on caffeine. You portray the character perfectly in this, your second vector.

I can really see this on marketing media (if Fox move to this style). The only thing; is the shading. Maybe pick out his features a little with deeper colors for the shaded areas and lines. Maybe add a little dimension to The neck area too.

I know that shading and curved gradients can be a pain in vectogarphy, but the end results would be 'deeper'.

The eyes are very House. They show his stress, his intellect and his character. Eyes are hard in 'life like' renders, considering that they tell so much.

I'm rating you a 5 for:
Effort, the fact that this is your second vector, character portrayal, the depth of the hair, the eyes and the overall quality.

:: rate 5 ::

You have made remarkable progress in literally just over a day.

The Yoda vector is fairly old, but anyway, this is still my second... But thanks. I know this is really desaturated, and when I do my next one, I'm really gonna concentrate on getting some contrast in the shading.

Some of the features aren't distinguishable... It's hard when you're zoomed in and trying to make it lookies like someone... =P

Thankies again, you're awesome... :)

Just some quick thoughts

-The face is waaaay too flat. I can hardly differentiate the features. I would try making his cheekbones more pronounced and adding slight bags under his eyes (there is a hint of them there already, just darken it a bit)
-I can't tell if the dark spot on his suit jacket is the collar of the jacket or the shadow from the collar. If it is the collar itself, add in a shadow to make it look like a collar
-Shadows from the hair would really help with the flat looking face
-Laurie's beard should be connected to his sideburns

I have to give you credit, though. I came into this thread expecting something that didn't look like him at all. It definitely does look like him. lol

Note: My critiques tend to focus more on areas that can be improved, and not areas that are good as-is. As such, my responses may seem overly negative. I apologize for this in advance and mean no disrespect, it just how I critique.
