I'm a drunken ex-con, mwahahaha. >3

I didn't find his edit useless at all. I actually took some advice and removed the dithering from the hair, and I also added some light reflections to my glasses; Looks like glasses now, doesn't it? o:
I also left the dithering on the shirt, but I'll think of how to make that different.

I know this is a short post/opinion, but i think the first looks better stylistically compared to the newest version. i think the contrast idea works.
red against yellow looks good in my opinion, but in the newer version it has less saturation and looses some...
flair?

i don't know, but it looked better in the first version in my personal opinion.

I disagree.
I think the newest version is by far the best.
Also, not too much wrong with the shirt. Though that one little dot that sticks up from the rest, near the center, is kind of odd.
Oh yes naked women are beautiful
But I like shrimps more haha ;)

Likewise. Good progress. However a single pixel is a lot of real estate in such high contrast so perhaps you should reconsider placing black pixels for moles and such. Think if you took a high-contrast photograph portrait, if these sorts of details would 'burn out' on film or not. Not that you're supposed to do as reality does, but do consider.

I fixed up the dithering on the shirt. :> Sorta.

And the dithering on the face, for the most part, isn't moles or anything [I think I've only three on my face; two on my cheek, one at the corner of my eye], it's just bumps on my face, from healing [finally] acne and whatnot. They wouldn't normally appear as anything on a high-contrast picture though; should I remove them? I think it gives the picture more personality. ;3

* Fixed the lips by two pixels maybe, and put in the old pallete in just for comparison's sake. I liked the old pallete, but the new one has a little cha'm too, and it's easy on the eyes. o:

That's reason enough to keep them.

Not much here, jus' starting a background, maybe.

Did a few nitpicks. Going with a hospital theme unless something else interests me.

Mwa, I see the similarities- orange hair and everything. XD

Thanks for the welcome! :>

Not much to say here; I tried drawing a 'cute' needle. I don't think it's really good, so I'm going to work on that for a while.

It's pretty nice, though I can't say I like the colours.  I feel complied to tell you though, there are no girls on the interbutts.
