I drew this cause I was trying to improve my skill as an artist. It kinda looks weird but I like it still. Crit/Edit welcome and wanted  ;D

There is no shading on the piece, pick a lightsource and place lights and shadows.

The pineapple seems sort of realistic, style wise, and the hedgehog's face/legs do too.. So I can't really tell what style you're aiming for, as;

The spikes look like they come straight off sonic , which looks.. Comparatively wrong. A hedgehog's form is really just ballish, or like a rat/mouse/guinneapig - The spikes would look like coarse hair, and not actually deform it's shape.

The spikes you've done facing us look nicer, it's just the ones on top that're making it jarring (to me at least)

It is v cute though, I love hedgehogs. Not convinced they eat pineapples though.  ;)

Well I updated it. Better form but didn't do anything about the lightsource.. not sure what to do exactly.

And I don't think hedgehogs eat pineapples either =p
