Haha, it was originally inspired by a jumping spider, but the chibi version definitely seems inspired by a WC.

Thanks!

I eyeballed it, so there must be bits where the shading and highlights don't fit with the light source.

Hey, thanks!

I still don't really understand colour. Though I think a lot of the greys could've been shifted towards orange or blue, I don't understand how to use that. I'll practice with non-neutral colours and see if I understand a bit better.

If feel like this robot takes some queues from a toilet

What do you mean "in case anyone wants to do the shading properly". The only reason I clicked on this is because of the amazing shading. Nice work!

Maybe you've updated it since Mandrill commented, but I think the colour scheme is great as is!

Nicely done!

It's a tricky perspective, but you've managed to display it damn well.

The palette, especially the shadow colours, could use some tweaking.
