@Shawn yeah, it almost looks like an amish beard...lol. I was aware of that, but I kinda like it. Regarding the forehead, no, its not that big...I was aware of that too ;)
Absolutely fantastic work, Rogie. Great style, well illustrated. My only criticism is that the beard looks just a bit disconnected, like it's coming from behind his chin. Otherwise, I love it.
@Rogie All of those are not impossible! Being a faith healer is even closer than the other two. :) Dreams are just distant realities that are waiting on our potential to fulfill them (Which God put inside us!).
@Hillary I've always felt something in me that was destined to be a faith healer, even though I know it's a VERY debated and controversial thing. I love the idea of bringing life and healing instantly into people's lives.

Anytime I try to grow as a illustrator, I typically start in a new style with my avatar. I wanted to try a more straight-on, shaded look.
FUN FACT: It's pretty obvious that I think people don't need noses. Most of my illustrations are nose-less.
My inspiration was this shot by Edokoa and this shot by Pedja.

Looks great Rogie. Is your forehead really that big thought 0_o
Only thing that looks a bit odd to me is the goatee. It almost looks like it's your neck but very hairy. Most likely just a point of view though.

Very smooth shading style. I really like it!
My only suggestion, making the beard look like its coming down off the chin, instead of behind or below it. :)

@Hillary I've had three dreams in my life: 1. Be a Disney animator. 2. Be a Game designer. 3. Be a faith healer.

@Rogie Then it is in there for a reason. Just how I feel like I am destined to help people financially and help to re-build homeless peoples lives. :)
