Are you supposed to be a pig? The colors a re a bit bright though. I think you should resketch the thing and make it well look more human.

I think that you should use darker shade colors. The face is now too flat.

This suffers of too many fundemental flaws to continue with in my opinion. It's too flat, the colours arent well picked, it doesn't really look like a pig, and so on.
I'd say redo the entire thing, and pay more attention to how a pig and a human actually look like, and how they're coloured.
Here's a suggestion:

(Don't mind the jagged lines, I'm just too lazy to remove em)

I added volume to it, more accurate colours, more realism. And I still kept it cartoony. It's a quick sketch, but you get the point I hope.

The middle shade makes the face look flat and embossed. Here (http://betterpropaganda.com/images/artwork/Ultravisitor-Squarepusher_480.jpg)'s a good reference for the lighting you have (even though it human not a pig but it shows the principles).

Allright now move your lighter shade a bit more to where the left eye is, so ti gets darker again at the left edge.
That makes it look round.
Now you should add a bit more darkness above your eyes, and make sure your eye's dont ffall out of your head, so make eyelids.
