My rendition of a chubby Prussian soldier originally sketched by Angus Mcleod. Please excuse the shallow, lame background.

The original character I used for reference below

Added some subtle rim lighting to his shirt to contrast with the background.

 I think I know the reason, since its a draw ( your reference ) its unperfect to control some shadows. Here, I fixed for you some fitting problems: http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff368/philippejugnet/angusmcleodprussian-1.png

fixed his left arm, fixed shadows in right arm, fixed neck, fixed the pot ( food ) perspective.

 

good luck man! have fun!

Nice work. That forest background makes me think about Golden Axe somehow.

I'm afraid I don't see what's causing it, then again I can become terribly blind when it comes to spotting my own mistakes.

The colours are really nice and I really like the work you did on the folds of his clothes.

@Dawnbringer: I didn't notice that about the fence, thanks. The freckles are actually supposed to be hair, close enough I guess.

Thanks everyone.

I like the background :) but the soldier blends in with the fence a bit and the far leg looks a little odd as the only limb without freckles.
