Idea is nice, but the colors needs better shading and blending. Plus the green color on the belt does not fit with the rest of the skin. There are tutorials at the forum that can help you learning to improve.

You have 10 days, and if I don't see any changes after that, the skin will be rejected.

EDIT: Seeing as you don't have the time to improve the skin, I'll reject it, but giving you the chance to fix the issues at any time.

This is the wrong pitcher...

This is the wrong ver of this one

dont double post, use the edit button. As for the skin, it looks ok for your first. The proportions, particularly his head, are a little wrong and i dont like the green on his belt.

Don't double post! Use button!

As for the skin... hmm

GOOD
[+] At least you made freehand job!

BAD
[-] Everything is pretty rough and a bit blurry
[-] Needs better shading
[-] Not very creative, you just traced old High Elf Worker's skin

NEUTRAL
[=] Yes, you should change the pick axe
[=] You should edit the face, too
[=] Green belt... weird

RESULT
1.25/5 - Practice, practice, practice...! You need practice buddy! For hair study this tutorial, face - study this tutorial! Don't feel bad about my rating, once you study those tutorials, you'll earn more experience points, and maybe you'll even get a new level! Try improving this skin, and we'll see if you get better grade

FINAL RATE
1/5 - Unacceptable

I also recommend this, since the way you shade the colors makes it lack blending between the shadows and highlights.

recolor, poor frehand, lacks shadings and highlingst, too defined in some areas....

1.68/5 practice my friend ^.^

How did you manage to rate it 1.68?? xD So... LordLyra, are you going to improve this skin, or what?

Somewhat ok, but the pick and the green ruins it all.

by paying atention to his.... "details" speakin' of which, the hair needs to be heavily reworked, he looks as if he started to loose hair.

Looks very weird and it gives me a feeling that it won't be approved unless edited.

Green belt just looks awful, either change outfit to match belt or change the belt to match the outfit

deadline set: 5 days to change, or consider it gone. >=3

I gave him 10 days to improve the skin, because I find 5 days to be a bit harsh.

the picture looks like an elf who listnes rap music XD
