Hi, I just want some advice on this image I just made. I know I can improve it, I want to add some more lights, and maybe contrast. But just tell me what you think of it now, and maybe how to improve it. BTW, I did not do the "BID FOR POWER" logo.

Also, here is the pic I did last time. Tell me if you think I have improved since then..

I think the overall shape is good, mabey the hair needs to be a bit bigger. The biggest thing I see that could be causing you to seek improvement is how dark you images are. I think you might be happier if you stuck closer to the original DBZ look of clean line and crisp color. The logo for example has a very clean, clear look to it that sort of clashes with your character. You might also want to sharpen up the chin a little. Overall, looking good.

I generally like the images but there style just needs a little work. At the moment you don't have really well defined edges because the colouring is a bit smudgy. What I'd suggest would be to take a small paintbrush (ie only a couple of pixels) and add some really dark tones (almost like thin lines) on the various coloured parts of the character to help give it some solid definition. If it comes out looking too cartoony, smudge/blur these lines until it looks well defined but not drawn.

hopefully this made sense.

Apply that to 1/2 hour of wierd hair and blurry fists and you have full blown anime.
