I'm working on this picture right now, and since I'll go to sleep now, I thought maybe I can get some input on what to improve in the meantime. It's a hommage to Herr Erdnuss, a character a friend of mine created a couple of years ago.

maybe it's time for a new thread? it seems to be harder and harder for you to get replies. ;)

fad avater looks cool. you prolly should have finished it. but then i prolly shoulda finished 1000 other pieces so i know what its like :lol:

second one is looking hawt. the only thing that really sticks out at me is the front time. i know its meant to be cartoony but its too skewed imo. his hands also don't really look like hands and the shading on the lower front face part doesn't really make sense to me...
thanks Dogmeat!

Thanks for your comment. I knew somebody was gonna say something about the hands, but they're really supposed to be like that (no, really, that's not a lame excuse! :D). About the skewed front, I think it wouldn't look dynamic enough if it was straight. I did change the shading on the face however, I hope it's better now. This is most likely the final version, 16 colours used.

Heh, thanks for your comments everyone :)

Some emoticons for mma05.at, my first actually, never tried that before. Largely inspired by the cool ones right here on this forum.



Also, ASCII smilies rule.

I think your smileys need to be a tad brighter, and some kind of outline, they're hard to see.
