Cute, very old school feeling

Thanks everyone! I guess I see that it does give it a pretty apporpriate texture.

Pretty much what everyone else said, the dithering works. I often see dithering used in the wrong places, but you did it perfectly.

The dithering makes it "bony". Gives it a really nice texture :)

It's about time that this got accepted into the gallery. 

The dithering is nice in this peace

I actually really like the effect the dithering creates on this.
