Hi-
This is probably my first attempt at rain - Im fairly pleased with it
The model I used from a previous render - jsut did a bit of smoothing out you wouldnt notice from this view anyway
if it doesnt show try http://www.deviantart.com/view/25222049/
cheers
I think those rain drops would look better on more toonish setting than what you got there now…
The forehead is a bit too forward on the face, perhaps pull it back a bit. The rain drops looks a bit too large imho, but I like the overall feel of the image, though I think a more meloncoly background would work better instead of just the purple.
LOL!
The work is kinda weird… Hm… The head model is great, but… Maybe it’s just me not liking purple color.
forgive my ignorance but - prince? whos prince…?
Hippie: Ive never actually experimented with different shading methods other than the default one - so ill take that into concideration next time i do something
Khnum: sorry can you clarify as to what you mean by meloncoly? I should know this but I dont… lol
and people have different sized heads so why not have the forehead off a bit ? 
but seriously- thx for the comment, I think I wont use this same model for anything else either way
