It WOULD be Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet if it weren't for one thing. Those little black strokes around the edges of some characters. I don't know it it's supposed to be shadow, but if it is, it's totally off.

That little thing is very distracting, but otherwise, you've got a very nice cover on your hands.

The character on the left, his shadow strokes on his hair look odd doesnt it? What?!?!

Ah moneky poop. @_@

Or is it the dragon and the one in the middle too?

Example of what I mean: The guy in the middle. There's a blob of black on his right cheek (not his right, our right).

I don't see any black blob. Neutral

There's shading around the ear, but it's not really that noticable.

I think the picture looks really good altogether, looks like something you could make a good cartoon with. Umm... that may be what the art in your first cartoon thing looked like anyway, but I never got it to work. Oookay...

Well, my brightness IS turned up on 100...

Still, people who have bright monitors are going to see that. If you can, you should try to fix it.

EDIT: Waiiit a minute. I turned my brightness down to 0 and I can still see it.

Squall is right; there is a blob. And it is irritating.

Depends on the brightness of your screen. You should probably fix that, Herp. Big grin

I cant see it, but Im gonna guess what the problem is. Neutral

First off, I should have used layers. Really confused

Second, I think I know why you see a blob, The black in the background is not fully black, full black would be 0,0,0, only the lines are 0,0,0, the background is I think 15,15,15. Thats why black blobs are visible in other peoples monitors and not mines. Crying

(my monitor is old and small. Sad...

)

So since I didnt use full black, theres these black blocks visible then. @_@

Ok, I messed around with my monitors settings, and now I see the black blobs. O_O It looks like the screen was dusty and the black blobs are someone putting their fingers on screen and making lines. X[

Ok, black blobs are now gone. Big grin

I tried to use layers, but that failed, so I just did the whole fashion erase them manually and darken the background to true black. Although I see two things about the CG that bother me, but for now, the blobs are gone.

Hows it look now?

Very interseting, and true to style, I must say. I'm guessing this character is the same one who's walkabout is in your avatar?
