I updated this topic and I changed the name.
The name 'kind of cowboy' wasn't suitable anymore.

Well what style are you going for?

[toaster]

I'm trying to shade it but i'm notrealy an artist,
so it will stay a bit cartoony.

[Platypotter]

it doesnt look bad, but it looks like it belongs in an old school gaming system. Is that what your trying for?

[toaster]

No, not realy. What do I have to chance.

Hey

I'm still working on it.
It isn't a cowboy anymore.
What do you think?

[Platypotter]

Hahaha i really like your style! Very simple looking... although there isnt any shading... do you plan on puttin' some in?

[toaster]

Yes, I do.
There's already a little shading but I don't know how to continue.
I'm looking for references and i'm trying to figure this out by myself.
Maybe I also have to put in some more contrast.

I actually see no shading... at least none in his clothes.
