Mayby you should save image to .png file :D Here is some advice: 1. When you draw picture, zoom it to x8 or x6 and then you can do good work. 2. Learn to make shades. I have trained long time but still not perfect. Good in that picture is that there is no contour. I post later on this topic some picture which you can copy and paste to paint and zoom it. Then you see how you have to make shades. Sorry about bad English. Edit: This image is made by Nazgul740 so this isn't mine!!! http://img501.imageshack.us/img501/6243/esimly5.png It takes time to learn making shades
