Conflicted  
I don't know if this looks better or this. Or maybe I should do something in between where the lines are there but not as dark and black. I need opinions, people!

I've been at lab since a little before 9:00 this morning, after yet another horrible night of sleep. I move rooms hopefully on Wednesday so we'll see if that's better. Anyway, I think I'm gonna be here until 6:00 or 7:00. Thank God I had that half a bagel at lunch or else I'd collapse from both hunger and exhaustion. As it is, I'm just gonna collapse from exhaustion. I wanna go back to Illinois. T.T

[EDIT]
With lines: 5
Without lines: 0

I think we have a clear winner. Good to know that all the hard work I put into outlining it wasn't wasted. ^_^

Oh, I forgot to ask about what people thought of the picture. I did like it but the more I stare at it (during the coloring process), the more I start to hate it. >.< I think it doesn't look like the character at all. Grrrrr.

Personally, I like the dark lines better. Is this one of the real-life japanese guys that you're stalking?

Why are you not eating?

Okay, that's one for dark lines. Date Koji played a Prince of Tennis character in the musicals and I took his clothes from one of the musicals and put it on the character. So, it's not really a picture of the real-life Japanese guy. And I'm not stalking him. I'm only really stalking Kazuki.

Because I'm lazy and stuck in lab all day. And once I get back to my room, I'm too exhausted to move.

I see. Well, I really like the shading on the clothes. :P

Still...not eating isn't very good for you...This isn't some weird diet thing is it?

It's not that I'm not eating at all. I'm just eating at very regular times. And not the healthiest foods, either. And no, it's not some weird diet thing. Although, I could use a diet; the fat is converging and planning an all-out war on certain areas of my body. >.< And the fat will win without even trying.

With lines, definitely. While I'm a big fan of the no-line look at times, there isn't a whole lot of contrast in the image without them. I think the lines really help it pop.

Definitely.

Dark lines. Otherwise his hair is trying to disappear into his face.

The lack of lines seems OK for the clothing (maybe better) just not for the face; however, mixing the two would just look weird. Would it be possible to add more contrast to the face region?

Possible. I'm still not very good at this shading thing. The blur tool is crying out in abuse. I'll have to play around with my coloring style.

I'm with the "with lines" camp as well.
