My first attempt to draw character

[Spiro]

Hi, this is my first attempt to draw character. It should be some old abby (i hope that's obvius). Please, criticise.

That's pretty nice!
I'd up the contrast a bit, and make his hand lighter.
After that, maybe the hand could do with some reshaping, but it depends on the general style of the game.

i could have eaisly just edited my post, but i thought i'd make another one just to bump this picture up the board, because i think its great.

Anyway here's my edit, sorry for the crappy GIF conversition but i wanted to keep file size to a low.

here's the animation showing the changes



the not soo great cartoony edit



and the better more realistic edit



hope that helps, and welcome to the forums

Thank you.
I like last drawing, i had problems with nose-eye shading, so that's OK now.
Now i need to draw main character who should look smart and, hm, ...cute. You don't want to push some ugly guy around the screen for long.
Any ideas what should be main characteristic of such guy? I tried but i only get character for asasin or thief.
