What do you all think? I was trying to use as little space as possible and be as minimalist as possible with this vault dweller from Fallout.

Well, it's very small, so kind of hard to critique, but here are some thoughts:

- doesnt remind me of fallout enough, I think its the form and colour patten, and the hair that is throwing it off
- his left hand is just some blurry red and green pixels
- his legs are a little short
- there isnt really any attempt at shading

Ok, I'll show you how it works best for me. It is my subjective, I do not mean to correct you and I think your drawing is fine for me.

I stretching his arms and legs, to stylize his figure a little more, without actually change its resolution too.
I have separated his arms from his body, so that the negative space plays in my favor, now you can guess the figure of his gadget (previously you can't).
