it's a bit low quality, try adding some shading in there, right now it's just filled-in lineart...

As has been said, this is traced. That's not always a bad thing, but that plus the lack of shading = it looking like there's a distinct lack of effort.

The trace itself is quite lumpy, you still do need to clean the lines. An image like this'd be perfect for practising anti-aliasing, combined with careful cel-shading this could look quite nice :)

And yes, putting your own spin on something does a world of good (And it feels good too :3 )

Oh, and for future reference: His name's the Cheshire Cat ;)
