You have a good imagination, yes the image is odd and makes me think... good luck author.

This is really 'chopping the chopper'! Very weirdly interesting, author!

you are a silly head, great Idea!.. (Try some burn tool along the edges of the lips,eyes and under the brim of the hat.. IMHO may make it more balanced.. GOOD LUCK and very cute chop

OMG, this is so cute..... I love my dog too. Good luck!

the drop shadow is a bit weird, and erasing the background off the back of the hair might be helpful, (soft smudge to shape the edge is what I would do, I can see where you were going with this.

Don't be afraid to use a Texting Tools like Word Art or the bending text tools in Photoshop to shape your title. You can also just rasterize the text and use the WARP or DISTORT text to shape it better. (Using Bevel emboss can be fun too)

Great fun idea, good luck

I followed your advice as I could I also lit a pipe

There should be no shadows against the sky, only on objects.
