waiting for the comments.
this is my new entry if i get suggestions that would be grateful

thanks for the votes ^_^

cute eyes and nice color

My only suggestion would be to pay more attention to fine details. Some of the things you pasted are now partially overlapping something else behind it. Little details like this will drastically change the overall look of your work. Overall it's a nice first entry, and welcome to pxleyes. Good luck!

Love the expression on the face.

My only critique would be to caution against over use of the smudge tool. I know the temptation is great )it is one of my favourite tools) but you have to be careful as sometimes the end result can look "worked". Try the liquefy tool and if you have it the Puppet warp is good. I am hopeless at drawing but if you can learn the trick to blending colours carefully you can get a similar but more refined effect as with the smudge tool.

All in all ... I love what you have created. Very fun creature and love the colours!

reminds me of my childhood's choochoo, LOL
