How do people feel about this level of detail in the figure?
BTW how large would this figure actually be on the hardcopy?

It's a good level of details already. This figure will be approximately
the same size as in your image if the whole image will be 7440 in
height.
I see that you are tolerant to criticism, so let me also add some
critisism, hopefully constructive :) See attached image.
My general impression is that the whole figure is a bit extended. I
would call it El Greco style :) Your initial intention to keep head:body
proportion as 1:8 is not presented here.
1. Face size is too small. That's why it looks a bit childish to me :)
2. I think this is UV mapping artefact.
I would added a little bit in 3, 6, 8 and removed at 4.
5, 7 - These parts look a bit wrong to me.
Anyway, it'a good level of details already :)
Gena.

The level of detail looks good to me. The figure as such may need some
work, as Gena has pointed out. He looks a bit too youthful and relaxed
compared to the guy in the painting.

Taking Zazzles colossal size as the target, which is almost 2 meters
tall, the figure in the boat would be about 10 cm. Of course the viewing
distance of a print that size would probably be more that the usual arms
length.

These are the first full figures I have ever attempted*, criticism is
invaluable.
Thanks for taking the time to include the diagram, specific examples are
much more valuable than general comments. If it's alright with you I
would like to use the same critical process with the other figures too.
Generally I think my difficulty comes with the need to envision the
figures in more detail than is given in the painting. I am much more
mimetic than synthetic in artistic temperament. So I can use all the
help I can get. The foreground family in particular is going to be huge
in comparison to the size of foreground figures in a Canaletto for instance.

baseball. She struck out one batter then walked in five runs. But she
came back in the bottom of the inning and hit a homerun!

Jeez I'm glad I asked! The foreground family are going to be huge then.

No problem. I'm not an expert in this field. I just made some anatomical
drawings long time ago when I attended design studio :) Some of them you
can get here:

I think you can use any reference painting for figures. We use original
Marlow's painting just as a reference. IMHO copying it stroke by stroke
is... too boring :) So any good improvisation will be very much appreciated :)

I have always admired your modelling ability, especially with figures.
I see now it is rooted in a sure sense of form and anatomy.

I just wanted to say that this project is enjoyable even for the passive
observer. Keep up the great work everyone.
