That looks really good. I like the shape of the face - and his facial features look really nice.

The only thing I would change is the arms/shoulders. They are a bit wierd.

Looks cool, his clothes look like Roger Wilco's Smile

I have to agree with james on the shoulders, it looks like he doesnt have shoulders Smile

oh, thanks. yeah. it was the eyes that really killed me. i had all the facial features just right, i thought they looked excellent. and then i got to the eyes. oh god, the eyes. i tried drawing them realistic looking, didn't work. i tried drawing them like kirby eyes, didn't work. i tried the anime-ish eyes, didn't work. it took me forever. and then i just kind of pulled the way that looked out of nowhere, and i thought "hey, this looks really good." so i kept it. and i didn't know if the blue eye thing would look right, but i did Smile

and the shoulder thing, once i got the eyes right, i was so excited i just quickly drew the shirt and stuff. and i would fix it, but since it's in color and was handrawn, there's really no hope of doing that at all. i tried changing it w/the computer, but that didn't turn out too well. plus i outlined him with really soft charcoal pencil. that stuff is hard to erase.

If you were going to try to redraw it, you could draw just the shoulders, and paste it over using the computer... or would that not work?

the only thing you'll have to watch out for if you do that is that the neckarea is about the same size as the head you allready have, otherwhise he'll have a realy large/small neck and a realy big/small head Smile

That picture is really good!

I like the eyes and the clothes. The only thing letting u down is the shoulders (Like everybody else said)
