You look quite grumpy.
Avoid reading incendiary sad news and long flaming threads.

PS: And yes, it is a joke, I actually don't have any good suggestion but the portrait looks quite good.

I'd add shading, and maybe work on a more realistic/believable ear shape

I made some minor changes that make the piece look a little more natural. I think you should study them, and consider why they make the piece more believable.

One thing to keep in mind, is that in a cartoony style like this, you don't want lines to have a lot of complexity - the more they resemble gentle curves - the better.

    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
