I think the dithering looks great. It definitely needs a bit more contrast, though.

Looks a little over-dithered to me. That's just me though, as I've never really liked more than slight amounts of dithering, especially not if the surface isn't rough. Again, that's probably just me though.
The only real thing that I think could add to this is higher contrast. Other than that, excellent job.

thanks guys, eventhough i dont like dithering much, ive been practicing dithering even for the smallest piece. your  is appreciated

This is great quality, you've done a pretty nice job on the shading which is nice and soft.

I quite like this dude's pose. Very nice.

Teej, I find your use of dithering in this piece really astounding.
