    Looks good - perhaps use a little copyright notice on images rather than such a huge watermark.

    @unicorninvasion .. pretty sure that only applies if he was selling something. A blog about the development of a game using GS is probably exactly what the forums should contain.

    Yeah cool, in future I won't plaster the images with hugh watermarks...it does look a bit over the top.. I assumed because I wasn't selling anything there would be no issues with having a link to my blog.. Il message SSS and perhaps he can move this or delete it if he wants.. I just thought it would be helpful to some users.. I often see links to youtube tutorials so I don't see what the problem would be..

    @TechNoir - nice start... I am looking forward to seeing more... :)

    Just a few ideas on your design - and my guess is you are familiar with my tutorials (the rat kind of gives it away :) ). The face is rather square which is typically a more male characteristic - with the eyes moved down and the chin a bit more pointy she will get a more female look. Also keep an eye on the anatomy - the shoulder in your design is rather low - it should be a bit higher up. Also the shadows you use on the dress seem rather random. It helps keeping one light-source in mind and shading the whole character or the main parts of it accordingly (e.g. a shadow on the face and hair from the hat will add a lot more depth).

    lol unicorn, stupidest comment on GS. The first comment is trolling.

    @clock - very funny... but not very helpful, mate. I was trying to explain some changes to the character to improve the quality.
