This concept is awesome...twisted and funny...just not sure about the balance of the design. Any reworks that can be done to keep the cool look and feel, but make it a more wearable and balanced design?

Aha! Very excellently well done. A double positive is probably grammatically as erroneous as putting two adverbs together... but putting these two together is a mash up of monsto-us proportions. Well played!

I may be resubmitting a 2.0 based on people's suggestions -- it's my first ever submission so I'm new to the game.

I can see symmetry being an issue as well as line thickness.

Well, in that case I'll give you a full critique with suggestions...

- The leaves make a really cool texture along the bottom, but they're too heavy to the left side of the design. Maybe if you can bring the Tin Man over towards the center of the design a bit it'd help to balance it. Maybe if you move him down into the foreground, standing ON the leaves?

- Your line quality is really cool. That, along with your color selection, should stay the same, IMHO.

- If the concept calls for him just having finished chopping the leaves from the branches, maybe you could have a few stray leaves still floating to the ground, placed strategically to help balance out the height of the Tin Man.

Anyway, hope that helps you out. I've benefited from the advice of many people on here so far, and it's only right to try to pass that on.

Peace.
