So here's a little background first. I'm not an artist, I'm definitely a programmer at heart. It takes me hours to pixelize the visions in my head, and even then it sometimes doesn't come out perfect. So I have my main character here:



I've shown a few people and got the initial reaction I was looking for: aww he's cute! I'm mainly looking for help with the eyes, but any other feedback is appreciated as well, considering this is the main character. I wanted the eyes to be easily changed to where he could be looking up or down, but every time I change the eyes he looks funny. I gave him eyebrows so that a simple change could make him look mad. Any ideas?
