Its very attractive! The background was pretty nice. The face could use a little bit more detail. Though, when you look at the blue part of the uniform it looks very weird. It looks as if hes keeping something inside there. Any who, its pretty decent. Good job - John Hancock

That's really basic. What engravedx said.

Also, next time use the img tags, k?

Lol thanks. It's basic because I did it quite quick. I suppose I need to do a more "detailed" cartoon now then (I'm only decent at cartoons tbh). Also, there was another thought bubble in there :S weird...

the width of the body from shoulder to shoulder is x3 the width of your head (approximatley), so yea make him a bit wider, but i like the style, very cartoony

those shoulder pads don't look right, and the wrinkles on both guys aren't right. the 2nd guy's body looks jacked up with his arms. i honestly don't like this style, im sorry.

Meh, k. TBH on the second one I wasn't going to add a body, but I guess I'll just have to read a few tuts on bodies.
