I think the AA is bad.. there is way too much of it, also on places where its not needed.. you better remove the aa, and readd it again when its allmost finished.. but then you should use way less AA.

It's a nice design, and a good start 

Some points:
-The aa is a bit too much--having so much outside of the black lines actually takes away from the boldness and makes it rather blurry, I think--so I suggest scaling that down.  On the other hand, some curves (the eyes for example), don't have any aa at all, and need to be consistent with the rest
-the lineart could use some cleaning up, there's some double pixels and some curves that could use a little smoothing
-I would use the darkest shade of black you have inside the mouth, as that should be quite dark
-the outline is broken on some of the hair on our right side

Hope this helps, good luck!

All black outlines or none at all.
