If Mr. Tinny O'Rourke's friends look like as much fun as he does, I can't wait to meet them!

*standing ovation*
THAT is an ORIGIONAL CHARACTER. I highly doubt I'll see something like him again. It's a good thing I did too, for he would have been a pity to miss.
Great job!

Very nicely done! Looks like someone I wouldn't mind meeting on the street. Definitely would be an interesting sight, wouldn't it?

Awesome job on the shadows! They look very precise and well placed. I also like how the dogs and him have a slight texture too. Whenever I try to let the texture show on my people, they change colors and look unpleasent. I can never seem to get it right.

Thanks so much! I've only recently started experimenting with shadows, I find a good way to do it in photoshop is to make a copy of the colour layer (if you're working in Photoshop), darken it, then on that layer, cut out the bits you want hit by the lightsource. It's kind of like working backworks, but it seems to take care of light and shadow in one go, then you can colour it seperately and do all sorts of fun things As for the textures, thanks! It's a lot of messing around with blending methods, don't be disheartened if they don't turn out great first off, mine never do Just keep experimenting, and you'll gradually build up a library of methods which seem to work for achieving different effects.

Awwww. That's lovely. Love the background swooshes, and the doglings are terribly cute. What are their names? Snickerdoodle, Rowlf, Baskerville and NorthHampton? Probably not.
You are right, his clothing colors don't pop as well as they could, but they certainly look fine. Keep futzing with them, I'm sure you'll come up with something brilliant. Combinations of drabs and brights, lights and darks, contrasts and similars, always like nice. That cushion he's sitting on is grabbing too much of my attention, maybe tone it down and make something else yellow? Dunno. I know how I would do it, but I don't know how you would do it. Be happy with how it looks, leave it be unless you have some epiphany, and do more drawings of tinny and fuss with them. Draw draw draw!
Ya done good, it's very warm and spiffy.

I'd offer to take a crack at it, but that would spoil your fun.

The combination of the dogs and velocipede make me soo happy. The dogs have such great dog personality. Cool piece.

He's absolutely charming!
I can't help but be suspicious of that black dog in the middle, with the eyes that look like coal embers. Barghest?
