Amazing! I loved his arms and his expression, now I really want to see what's coming next!
Congratulations!

Really nice anatomy and color work. The pose and expression are great 'tho the image doesn't speak "vampire" or undead to me.

Cheers for kind words !
I did opt to portray a vampie in human form (if that makes sense) as opposed to a creature like vision and chose to portray his undead state through his monochromatic and lifeless skin colour.

His face and hands are looking fantastic. What doesn't fit me to the figure are his overmusculated breast - in opposite his sensitive and thin hands an the other part of body.

I take your point
I was aware that the forearms and hands looked a little thin but thought this slightly odd feature helped lend him a somewhat more jarring and unquiet quality - not quite human but still remaining plausible.
It would be interesting to reduce the pecs however and see how it compared.
