This may seem harsh, but please listen. :D First off I'd like to say the parts you have done are not bad at all for a first pixel, and at least it's not stock colors. C|C -Finish the face. -Move the whole picture to a side, pictures with the focal point in dead center are BORING. There's no movement. -Make it busier in the BG. -Don't make it so ... straight-edged. This isn't TANGRAMS. You can have curves in the BG, too. -Clean up your lines a little until you learn to AA. -You're light sources are off. One is from Behind, one from the Right. (Still, it's 99.34% closer than most's first... and tenth tries) -The text is not pretty. It's Rather appalling, actually. -DETAILS. :) Overall I give the sig: Normal standards : 3\10 First Try : 9\10 Mr Potential, practice makes perfect. -Miss Queen Rach
