	I think its too simple and with a lot of jaggies. You could use way more colors and better ones. Quick edit: Added perspective, added hue shift, added more colors and thats it. By the way, why did you posted it on the gallery if its still a WIP?

	Well, I'm new to this. The fact is that I posted it here because it got rejected on the gallery. I really like how you redid the skull, but I have no idea how to do that.

	Use references. Look up some images of skulls on Google, and try to match the shapes.

	Look at references. Copy the way light falls on the references. It looks like you've drawn what you think a skull looks like. e: left this window open for too long :L Edited by Jeremy - 30 May 2012 at 3:26pm

	Philippe's edit is more of a completely different piece in a different style. Adding perspective can be a nice touch or not, depending on what you try to do, if it is part of a scene or it is more of an icon. I'd say from this I would either go into something more realistic or more cartoony, it's a bit in between both which is why it may lack tension and not look that interesting. The animation as well is a bit of gimmick at this stage, I'd rather developp it or remove it.
	Une signature? Comme Zorro ou Batman?
