I am not sure how I should continue shading, or if I should restart shading. What do you guys recommend? This is my first post, woohoo!  Also, do you think its left eye should be moved around a bit/redrawn?

	Since I did a transparent background I tried using alpha colors for a anti-alias. But I think I should try a solid background, what do you think? Any other suggestions? I did a little edit. Edited by thedaemon

	Take out the AA on the outside of the black line, it's really blurring the image. Highlights would bring depth to him and smoothing your angles so the lines don'tlook so sketchy and jagged would help.

	Closer and closer to my goal. Yeah, I removed his eyes, cause they are in the way for now. Trying to get basic coloring down first.

	I think the light line on the left side of the demon makes it look weirdly 2D. I'd suggest changing that and maybe putting a darker line on the right side of him instead.
