   Working on this... doesn't look so good. Any ideas on how to improve it?

	I think it looks pretty good, but there's a couple of things I'm wondering. Why is the man standing on top of the ground but the robot is reaching the bottom of the canvas? If it's suppose to be sunk down into the ground I don't really think it looks like it, but it would at least make sense to me if that was the case. Is something going to go on the right side of the canvas? It's kind of empty over there. I think it would be better to have the empty space on the left side like this-

	Thank you! Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking when I pixeled the robot to the bottom of the canvas. Also I added some AA to the outline of the robot and centered everything, and fixed the white space between the guy's legs.

	Iron Giant? :P You need to clean up your forms a bit, some pieces especially the legs seem organic. The position the robot's lying in doesn't seem very natural either. Are you gonna keep it greyscale? What are the chances that I was thinking about doing a similar piece? x_x E: if you decide to add colour, check this piece of Larwick's for inspiration Edited by Jeremy - 02 May 2011 at 10:39pm
